That old house had been hidden in the woods for a very long time.
My kids know that that's a thing of mine - seeing old abandoned houses here and there. Every once in a while, we will see a new one, sometimes deep in the woods, with the remnants of a driveway long since vanished. When I used to take them to Greenwell, we'd notice all the crappy abandoened wrecks of homes along Old Three Notch just before the Hole in the Wall.

Really like to see the houses near the corner of 235 and 245 get torn down.

When we first moved to St. Marys in the 70s, one of the first places I explored was the remnants of the old point lookout hotel.

There used to be an old house at Greenwell back in the woods. It must have been really nice back in the day. It's gone now.

Is that the one where the columns by the road are still there? The one the kids and I called the Bates Motel?

That's the Shenandoah National Park in a nutshell. Thousands of residents evicted on short notice in the late 1920s or early 1930s and their property EDed to create the park that includes Skyline Drive. The remnants of old mountain folk homesteads are scattered throughout the park and accessible only by hiking through rough terrain..the local roads and trails used by the residents at one time, long gone. Some of the farms were quite extensive, with many outbuildings.

We used to camp out at the Cedar Point lighthouse in the early 70s, moored inside the breakwater and partied all night. used to dig up manoes in the sand too.

That's where all the wendigos live.

You could get a basket of them at the Frying Pan, in Lusby for either $2.99 or $3.99 in the day. Damn they were GREAT!
