The Old Field House

Washington State

Actually, this house is about the same age as the house the Field family lives in now,
across the road. This one though has been abandoned for some time and
only the cows call this place home now.
You can find this old house located on Chesaw Road heading West between
Chesaw and Oroville, before the turnoff to Molson.

That's a breathtaking picture you did here of the abandoned field house. Ah, such a lovely place. This is defenitely one to frame ! Wonder what kind of adjustments you made. Is it real black and white or desaturated ? Anyway, it's simply perfect ! V

Beautiful shot Fred. Now you can use the "map it" feature in pbase to show the exact location IF you so desire. It just takes time to add it ....................
