Sunday Stills Challenge....Old Barns

We live in an old farm house that was built in 1823 and two of our barns are well over 100 years old.
Here they are in all seasons.
























































They are not fancy, but I sure do appreciate them.

To view more old barns, click on Sunday Stills in my sidebar.

    I love your barns! Especially, the stone work. Old barns look so inviting and cozy to me.

    Excellent photos. I see your barn serves a dual purpose....love the basketball hoop. My fave is the one framed with the vines/lights...great shot.

    I do always marvel at all of the buildings on your place. So amazing and really was my type of dream place back in my youth!

    Love each and every photo! As you know by now, I simply LOVE your barns! The fact that they are over 100 years old, I'd love to know their history ... who built them etc. Thanks for my barn "fix" at your wonderful farm!

    Great looking barns, so different in style from around here. I really like the silouhette at the end.

    I love these old barns, especially the one (not sure what shape to call it, but 5th photo) or could it be like an upside down ship!...anyways, love it!

    I love your barns. I love old barns... I often wonder what stories they could tell.
    Your picture with the horse's shadows is lovely.

    They don't have to be fancy. Old barns are magnificent right down to their 'bones'! I can't get enough of looking at them. I take countryside drives sometimes just to see what old barns i can find. I feel so connected to our agricultural worker ancestors when i see these barns. So much character they have and soooo much labor went into building them and their upkeep! :)

    That photo of the barn framed by the arch is one of my all-time favorite photos. It sounds trite, but it speaks to me.
