  1. Nice country scene. I used to love going there.
    Pull out a chair and listen to the scanner.
    Now?
    I don’t think you can even get in there any more.

  2. It’s no good anymore. Feed mill gone too. You used to be able to drive right down and have many different angles to shoot. Now it’s limited to the crossing. Traffic down too so you can’t just sit and wait either!

  3. They built townhouses/apartments just to the right. All fenced off.

  4. Lovely photo.

  5. Really nice photo Kevin.

    I was here yesterday. This shot is still possible and there is a small dirt lot beside the fence you can park at. You can walk along the fence-line by the pole line to get it. But as Arnold mentions it’s not very relaxing like back in the day. Its more of a take your photos and leave area now unfortunately.
