Centennial World's Fair 1876 building January 2004 Philadelphia,Pennsylvania
We spent a cold January there in 2004 but were lucky to see the Exhibition Hall and archway left over from the famous Centennial World's Fair that took place in 1876. This was a grand celebration of our nation's 100th birthday. There wasn't anyone out and about, so it was cold, lonely roads we traveled on.
For more information and old pictures/drawings of the actual fairgrounds and architects go to http://www.bc.edu/bc_org/avp/cas/fnart/fa267/1876fair.html

As the photos show, the mountains are always nearby on this road. The church is Prize Church and cemetery (circa 1898).

Parker Mountain Road, Rural Greene County, Virginia
What I am showing today are once again, very old farm building or homesteads. They may seem boring to some, but just like very old original classics are valued by learned scholars: I value these old building simply because they cannot last much longer. A photo is the only way I know to preserve these treasures.
