this slide show records my exploring two abandoned home sites. These homes existed back in the 1940s and were destroyed from a typhoon. The only way to get here is by boat or kayak then a short trek across some muddy marshland. This land is cut off from the mainland by marsh and natural waterways. The Nature Conservancy purchased all the land around this area, preventing new development here. You can see why they did that, it is beautiful here. No need for houses out here. Quinby VA, on the eastern shore.

  • The area certainly is beautiful. I noted the "fish scale" embrication (shingling,) which was no longer common after about 1910, indicating that these structures predate the 1940s.
