Two Trees In Time

This house has no visible remnants of a driveway...no road access. I walked forever through the field that surrounds this house, to get this shot. I wouldn't get any closer than this...places like this change the way I feel, the closer I get to them. I would assume that this field fed the family that lived here, maybe it was a cotton farm, or corn....I wonder where the road was back then, and how long it's been since that house had someone living in it...how long it's been since it heard laughter....or had a child playing in the yard...if ever....

UPDATE: Jan. 31st I also post my photos on Flickr.com and a gentleman that ran across the photo there told me that he used to live here in the area when he was a kid....he said that his aunt told him a story about a birthday party and the family that lived in this house back in the 1930's....I'll see if I can find out more.
