Still standing strong in retirement……..
This barn may have been put out to pasture years ago but it is still holding its own as foliage tries to overtake it on every side. I think it’s a gem of a barn and I hope it stands for many years to come representing all the hard work of the farmers who passed through it’s doors. It can…

The silo stands majestically through the trees.
I’m standing in the center of Birdseye Rd to take this shot. It is a very rural, infrequently traveled road on the outskirts of Shelton CT.

Setting sun on a beautifully aged Meriden barn.
I had my list of barns to find this day and when I came upon this one it did not disappoint.

Just on the other side of the barn, (out of picture), were about a half dozen dairy cows in…
