When I was small I loved to wander about the hay-strewn floor of my Grandpa's barn loft. The barn stood empty then but I did not feel lonely. It held many sweet memories for me... of my aunt milking the cows, my Grandpa sharpening a tool on the grinder in the lean-to shed. I love barns and that one was very special to me. I hope you have a barn in your past that you have enjoyed and loved. There are all kinds of barns. What is your favorite type of barn?
This one is TALL.
This one has a ROUND roof.
This one has been painted RED.
Here is a WHITE barn.
and this one is about to FALL down.

I just love seeing pictures of barns. These are great!
ReplyDeleteI love the barns. How do they make those round roofed ones anyway? The falling down one looks like it has eyes, nose and mouth.
ReplyDeleteHate to see barns decay. Great post. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
ReplyDeleteHi Latane, I loved visiting my Grandpa and Uncle's farms and playing in the barns when I was a little girl. I spent many hours in the hay lofts, playing with kittens and reading books.
ReplyDeleteThe barns you have in the US have so much character. Each one is special!
ReplyDeleteAll such interesting barns but I think I am partial to the one that is red. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat collection of barn photos. My favorites are the red and white. Now all you need to do is a find a blue one. Great shots, have a wonderful week and 4th of July!
ReplyDeleteAwesome shots of Barns ~ Favorite? Red Barns ~~ thanks, ^_^ (A Creative Harbor)
ReplyDeleteGreat pics!! I think I love the smell of barns the most, rather than the look. I like the feel of them too. The ones I've been in have been kind of musty and warm. You can smell the hay and animals. It's nice. ;-)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by my blog. I wish you the best in your writing! Give yourself time. Consistency is difficult and I struggle with it too.
I like a red barn, and I loved reading the book....'Enchanted Barn' by Grace Livingston Hill. Ever read that one? It's delightfully old fashioned with a Christian tone. As I remember it...
ReplyDeleteI love to see pictures of old barns!! These are some good ones!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat barn pictures... I like them all--but I'm always partial to RED ones...
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Betsy
I like barns too but don't have any special memories of them. I love the photo in the previous post of the bride/groom haybales, that's a classic!
ReplyDeleteWhat lovely barns. I like them ALL... including the one falling down! I was not one of the lucky little girls who grew up in the country, so I have no fun barn memories. Yours sound wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGREAT barns, Mom! I particularly love the white one! So interesting and different! Love the barn memories you shared too.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection! I prefer the red ones personally, but that old one on its last legs is beautiful! If you get a chance, stop by my blog, and "Like" Hood Photography on Facebook! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteWow! All the barns you photographed are so different from one another.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun! I love barns! I also love that photo a few posts back of the red monardo and the glads!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your barn pics.
ReplyDeleteI remember climbing up in the loft of my uncle's barn and was afraid to go back down, as a cow that did not like children had wandered into the barn.
Thanks for stopping by and comment.
Ah, my favorite subject for country drives! I love the one that looks the most fragile....
