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…

Pristine barn sits pretty in the field.
As you can see this barn has been kept up beautifully and presents a near pristine appearance. It was located on Valley Falls Rd. in Vernon CT.

This large well maintained beauty of a barn and Silo sits quietly at the end of a long autumn New England day on Tranquility Rd., in Middlebury CT. I’d love to know when this was built.
