Description
I spent nearly a decade living north of Atlanta, and one of my favorite pastimes then was wandering the back roads looking for examples of fading Americana. There were so many old farms and old rural places there that were on their way out so to speak.
Such was the case of this beautiful old rustic barn I ran across one fall morning. I was attracted down the dirt road by the gorgeous yellow and golden leaves I saw, but as I bumped down that road, I spotted this old barn nestled in the trees. If there was an old homestead still remaining nearby I never saw it.
Less than a year later, I drove through the same area in North Georgia and a subdivision was being built on the land. No more golden trees, no more barn. I'm so glad I chanced upon it that one morning and preserved a little sliver of a fading way of life in North Georgia.
