18th and 19th Century farm life and tools used are interesting to me. The Appalachian Mountain region on the east coast of the US was settled by hardy people, most having immigrated from Europe. The design and purpose of such antique items we see today originated there … not here.

They say that a picture is worth 1000 words, these pictures are worth a few hundred years. Nice work Michael
Those images are worthy of being framed as art!
Appreciate comment. Wish I could get out more. Weather been a bummer here lately.
Wonderful- fascinating… and very beautiful. I like how you capture glimpses of early American history and the passage of time with sharp focus and perfect color balances.
I had a farm for about 8 years. These photos remind me of how much I miss it. Thank you for the walk down memory lane.
Glad you enjoyed the photos. Thanks.
