One of the roads hubby and I drive on when we just need to get out and drive has this old barn on it. I am not sure what it is about it, but it appeals to my old-time senses. I just can imagine all the crops, animals, people, and season it has seen. What stories it must hold 🙂 It just gives me hope that somewhere there is a farm out there for hubby and I and maybe one day we will be looking at our own barn and thinking of all the memories it holds 🙂
Oh, I do love an old barn. We have one, and I am transported every time I walk into it to do chores. My grandparents had a barn and now we have a barn – it is a wonderful thing and the memories enrich your soul.
I am happy you knwo what I mean… I hope to have one (or two) of my own someday 🙂
Lovely thoughts
Thanks sometimes I just share what is in my head and it works 😉
It is lovely but that right-hand corner looks very vulnerable!
Possiably, but it has been there a long time like that 🙂
I love old barns too. It really makes me happy when I see and old barn that has fallen into disrepair getting repairs so it will last another 50 or 100 years.
Yes it is nice to see someone preserve the old 🙂
We used to drive around the midwest countryside, and when we would see an old barn or building, the family joke was, “There’s a shop for Grandpa,” who was looking for a place to put his cutter grinder equipment. I know you will get your own barn someday. BTW, I nominated you for a Blog of the Year 2012 award. http://wp.me/p2jC Congratulations! Thanks for being one of my first blogging friends. Enjoy the holidays. 🙂
You are so kind I really apperciate the nomination 🙂 Your drives seem like great family traditions 🙂
They were. It seemed to take forever going the old highways between Indianapolis and Crawfordsville, and looking for old buildings kept us kids entertained. We all had great laughs. I wish WE had stopped to take pictures. 🙂
I know there are things I remember things I wish I had photos of. I love the old highways that go on and on… you can not find those much these days 😦
I know – thank good ness!! I grew up before freeways! Scary!
Scary indeed:)
Love the post and the photo. I was attracted by the title, because there is a children’s book by that same name, WINTER BARN. I read it to my son many, many times when he was small. Thanks for a lovely memory, and I hope some day you get your own “winter barn!”
Thank you and I will have to check out that story it sounds like a keeper 🙂
Oh, my goodness I love this….I really do love old barns and pictures of them. This is a fabulous picture. Hugs
Thank you so glad it made you happy 🙂 Old barns make me happy too… I just can’t help myself it is a part of history 🙂
