  • Weekly Photo Challenge

    Went to my parents’ today. This was some of what I saw on the way home:

    Just a few of the many barns:

    newell's barn
    171 barn

    This barn is in a turn on a hillside:

    barn in turn 3

    A barn near our turn off:
    loziers

    This barn is 130 years old and still harbors heifers:

    That’s all for the barns. Lozier’s deals in farm equipment and they use a few of the really old ones to decorate. This one is at the end of my road:

    The first time my husband brought me to his home this way, I felt as if this was the end of the earth. It seemed as if you would drop off the side:
    end of the world

    This is what the end of the earth looks like. Note all the mud and muck:

    A neighbor’s cow and calf:

    When I get home, my Boomer is always here to greet me:

    I realize these are late, but I did them!

  • I love the barn pictures, remind me of back home where I grew up. Thanks so much for sharing them xoxo Tynee

  • The green roofed one looks interesting and I like the old tractor – it would be good to take some studies of it for a watercolour.

  • I love barns, old, new, falling down makes no difference and there are so many times I have wished I lived at the ends of the earth.  Much and mud doesn’t bother me.  It’s the being in the quiet country side away from all the cars and trucks.  I had rather hear a moo or an oink and the smells, I get used to the worst and I love the best. 

    Great photos and I am so glad you posted these even if you did get them in late.

    Happy Easter to you and have a great new week,

  • Those are great photos!

  • Great pics of the barns.  And wow Boomer sure did greet you up close…I can see up his cute, little black nose!!  

  • I like the barn photo.
