Surprise Barns



We have lived across the road from these old barns for going on 35 years, but not until yesterday did I know they even existed. When I drive out of my driveway leaving for work, I turn left and not right so I do not ever go by them. When coming home, I turn into the driveway before getting to them. Neither appears to be used for hay or animals but rather as storage space. It was such a shock to see the green one. They are hard to find in our county.

  3. they're both great, but i'm laughing because i just recently went straight down a road instead of turning - for the first time since we've lived here 9 yrs. funny how we fall into our patterns and just don't break from them easily!

  4. Love your barns. The green one is unusual, we don't see many green ones.

  6. A couple of beauties! It's funny how we can change our route just a little and see things we never knew were there.

  9. Wonder the year of the car under the side of the first one. Looks like it was put under cover for a little protection.
    LOVE the green one! I don't see green here but know that there is many green barns in nearby Ohio.
    Next to red green is becoming my favorite color to see if the barns aren't naturally weathered.
    I have to say Hubs and I take every little road and every way we can. We haven't left much unseen in the four years we've lived here.
    Glad you found these.

  10. See, I'm too nosy to have not ever gone down the other direction...!
    That poor car in the first one looks at a precarious angle.
