Description
Autumn color image of several old pickup trucks and a vintage Texaco sign alongside an old wooden barn, on property that appears run-down or abandoned, perhaps because of the catastrophic events caused by the 1980 eruption of the volcano Mount St. Helens.
Barbed wire fence and long grasses, plus some white wildflowers, in the foreground. Shot on the way to Mount St. Helens, in the state of Washington, United States of America.
