I do not know the true name of this homestead. I chose "Twin Willow" because there are no other willows nearby and the land near the farm would not likely 'naturally ' grow the willows. I suspect the willows were planted by the family that once lived on this now abandoned farm. Though the other out buildings are falling down, the ubiqultous outhouse is upright and ready.

Looks like a scene right out of Currier & Ives! Peaceful photo, Jay.

I am glad you are willing to go into the deep snow to take these pictures for us. They are lovely and something I would never see if not for you. Thanks!
