Beyond the field my eyes studied a long wall of pine trees, a windbreak of sorts that stretched from the road back toward an old farmhouse and an older barn surrounded by low brush. Through the binoculars, I could just make out the top of Carney's Impala parked in the side yard by the house. From a long way off you could see that the white house paint was blistered or gone to bare clapboard. The roof of the barn looked like it had been hit by lightning at some point. There was a charred, gaping hole on one corner. The whole structure sagged left.
Beyond the field, I observed a long wall of pine trees acting as a windbreak, leading to an old farmhouse and barn surrounded by sparse brush. Using binoculars, I spotted Carney's Impala in the yard, its white paint peeling or worn down to bare wood. The barn's roof appeared damaged, possibly from lightning, with a large burnt hole and a leaning, sagging structure.
