She stands to the right of the front of the Buick and looks to the camera. Mary and Nella also stand in front of the far left side of the old log cabin. The cabin stands right of center on the far side of the dirt road. Its stone chimney stands at right and begins to topple slightly. A painted sign rises above the far left side of the cabin.
