There is a certain suspension of time and place to this image. You don't know if the owner has just stepped out or has been gone many years and the workshop waits patiently for his return. Everything waits, just as it was left, until the owner's hand returns to put it to use once again.
The picture was taken at a working farm along the Blue Ridge Parkway a few years back and, for all I know, everything may be just as it appears in the picture.
