Barn Charm from Indiana

This is a barn we found last weekend....one right here in Indiana and one I had never seen before.

Even it was on a curvy road...well, where it was at was curvy.  But I snapped a few quick shots.
I felt like it was a place with plenty of tales to tell.
I was so glad I glance back and saw this view as we drove on past. It gave me a completed feeling.

I like all the different angles of this interesting barn!

Carletta said...

It's a little neglected but it appears to have good bones. The fall foliage adds quite the charm.

A ramshackle old beauty! Great autumn colors around it, too.

Beautiful, Rose. I especially love that last shot with the fence. It makes me sad to see these barns falling down. Soon they will be bulldozed under and the younger generation won't know they were ever there. :-(( Thanks for catching that one before it fell.

Hi Rose,

I just saw on The Weather Channel where over 500,000 are without power in Indiana, does that include you & Roger? Ya'll ok? Prayers are going out to everyone in the line of & being affected by Sandy!

A beautiful barn and much larger than originally thought. Is it still in use? You are right---a lot of stories there. MB

Just beautiful. Yes, I agree that these old structures have so many stories to tell. This one is a classic - color and shape. Thank you for sharing!

Jori said...

I love it! The remaining red paint is my favorite!

Mary said...

Glad you took so many views of this one....very nice!

Great touches of red in the barn siding. Never realized how many unusual barns Indiana has until traveling through parts of the state recently looking for Barn Charm photo ops.
