Lonely Barn

 Hi to all the barn lovers out there....

Take a look at this 'weathered' barn that caught my eye as I traveled along hwy 258 between Windsor and Smithfield, Va.  I did a quick survery.... nothing coming in front of me....nothing coming up behind me.... brakes applied.... quick snap and away I went.

It looks lonely doesn't it?
Wish I'd had some chickens and a goat to throw behind that fence. Oh.... fence.... I am linking this to BARN CHARM. It also would link to OUTDOORS WEDNESDAY and FRIDAY FENCES. Hey... I'm covered for the week with memes.

It looks like Heidi and Grandfather could have lived there if it was in the alps! I loved that book, especially the part where she lay in the loft and looked out at the stars before she drifted off to sleep. Its been years since I've read it, but that part of the story still sticks.

I agree with Maggie Ann, I loved Heidi, too, and still remember parts of it after all these years.

Love the barn! I had to laugh about you covering all bases with one shot :) You did good!

Love your snow on your blog... I have it on mine too--but it won't bring the real stuff to us... ha

Hugs,
