Barn charm of a different sort

We had Lorelei for the past three days, and took her to meet her dad today...on our way home we took the scenic route.  We always meet at the intersection that is south of Greencastle...and have never taken the 231 north from there.  So we did today...when we got to Greencastle, we headed west.
I cannot remember just how far we had gone till we turned off that road to one less traveled...but almost as soon as we turned off that road, this came into our view.
I took photos from all sides except for one and I do wonder what was on it.
As you can see the sides that I could see all had something on them...
Hope you enjoy this entry to Barn Charm!

TexWisGirl said...

someone put a lot of work into that! strange, though, i'd prefer to see murals on city buildings and leave the country a bit more plain. :)

Really love this barn all on its own, but the changing leaf colors in your first image really set it off. What a wonderful find!

I love that someone took the time to paint all that on the sides of an old barn. A hidden treasure!

What a neat barn -- I'm glad you found it and shared it with us. By the way, 231 went past my boyhood home in northern Indiana.

Mary said...

Wow...Rose! I almost missed this one! This is wonderful! What a great way to decorate their barn! Beautiful!
