And what fortitude these early settlers had to go out there to new country. These old houses make wonderful subjects for photography.

Where did they go? <br />Then I think about what great country style signs one could make from the weathered wood.

A few years ago we drove across the prairies to Banff and it made me sad to see our history rotting and falling apart and disappearing into the dirt. They are such simple, rustic homes, cabins, and outbuildings and are just beautiful against the prairie skies. You took some fantastic photos of them.Grace @ Sense and Simplicityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14185222544452668586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4370623656201499602.post-37662801437204406012011-04-03T19:13:17.338-07:002011-04-03T19:13:17.338-07:00They appear to be melting just like the snow...They appear to be melting just like the snow...Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.com
