One Barn, Three Angles

When I was small there were a lot of barns in my neighborhood. I used to climb into the loft of my Granddad's barn. It was a fun place to play. But, barns are harder to find now. I guess the small time farmer is waning and big commercial barns have taken over. It's always a treat to discover a barn on my travels. 

We were winding around a small mountain road near Roanoke, Virginia when there was this barn, sitting perched on a hillside hanging on for dear life. This is the same barn... three shots. 




Linking up with my friend, Tom, at Backroadstraveller for his Barn Collective.

  2. ...the big boys are taking over the farm business in many area, but thankfully in this area we still have a mother lode of barns! Thanks Latane for stopping by, I hope that you will stay on the lookout for a barn of two!

  4. this is a real beauty...I always wonder when they are so close to the road, if the road was built after they were built.

  5. Really great barn, Mom! I love that pretty red. Odd that it's on the edge of a rise.

  6. That's a pretty little barn perched there that way. It reminds me of one locally. I often am surprised that far away places can almost look like home. You must find that, too.
