Meet the silos that sit on the farm property I like to explore. Tonight I went through my photo archives looking for images to print for gifts. I came across this 10/22 set, and in it were a good number of photographs of the silos. Since I started visiting the farm last Spring, I had known they that were on the property, and I'd explore them from the exterior taking a few shots. For whatever reason I always delayed sharing them in my blog. There's something special about these abandoned structures, and I suppose I felt they deserved their own post.
I remember this visit well as I was exploring the property for a long time that morning. This was the first time I was brave enough to stick my head completely inside the silo opening to look inside. I was always afraid that someone was going to jump at me to freak me out. I was ready for a return scream this time which helped me just go for it. I still hesitate when peeking in, always prepared, and one day I definitely want to climb inside.
I find it interesting that these abandoned silos are in the plans to be saved by the developers of the property. Supposedly there will be a "silo park" in an area of the homes and open space.
Great pix, but it's hard to imagine a silo park, as the first two pictures remind me of Wuthering Heights.
ReplyDeleteHello Victoria. It's good to see you checking in. There will have to be a lot of clearing and structural support needed to get these into shape to be part of public/private space. I'm guessing that it will be some time before we know.
