I’m throwing in this extra winter shot, because it is one of my favorites.  I didn’t use it in the series because the perspective is different from the other shots.

Chilicki Dance Hall

This is the dance hall that once stood on Old Highway 101 in Armstrong Creek, shown in all four seasons.  So far I have not been able to find any history on it.  The roof collapsed many years ago and it was torn down completely last year, so I am very thankful that I have these pictures.  This dance hall was just about a hundred yards down the road from the Chilicki Blacksmith Shop.  I have posted pictures of the blacksmith shop here also in all four seasons.

Blacksmith Shop

This is the old blacksmith shop in Armstrong Creek, WI.  in all 4 seasons.  I wanted to give some history on this building, but I can’t find any.  If I ever do though, I’ll post it.

4 Seasons Barn

This barn belongs to a friend of mine who lives just a few miles away.  This is another of the old builidings in the area that fascinate me and I thought it would be an excellent subject to photograph in all 4 seasons.

4 Seasons Manure Spreader

This frame is all that’s left of an old manure spreader that sits on the site of an old homestead in the woods behind our house.  The following pics are shots that I’ve taken of it in all 4 seasons.

4 Seasons, Shorty Shack

This is a little shack that sits just at the edge of the woods south of Armstrong Creek, WI.  I don’t know the history of it other than a man nicknamed “Shorty” lived there many years ago.  This shack is very small, about 12 feet wide and only about 8 feet deep, yet it’s charm is endless.  If I ever manage to get any history on this little piece of the past, I’ll be sure to post it.

Vintage Tuesday/Four Seasons

This is an old barn located on Old Smith School Lane in Armstrong Creek, WI.  The house caved in years ago, but the barn still stands strong.

Vintage Tuesday/4 Seasons

I’m multi-tasking again.  I’m posting this old vintage tractor in all 4 seasons.  The thing with the jar on top next to it is a cream separator.  This tractor and cream separator are in a small clearing in the woods behind our house and all that remains of an old homestead.

4 Seasons: Outhouse

This is an outhouse that stands on the site of an old homestead on Old Smith School Lane in Armstrong Creek.  The barn and house have caved in a log time ago, but the pumphouse and outhouse are still standing.  The door is missing on the outhouse, though.  The front of it is a turquoise color.  I like shooting it from the back cuz the background is better from that perspective.  I remember the old man that lived here.  When I was a kid, he would walk into town every day (about 3 miles), pick up the priest’s mail and deliver it to him.  Something about this old homestead draws me back from time to time.  I just seem to have a fascination with old abandoned buildings.
