Entering Blogland again....

This has been a harsh winter for us...you won't believe how our holidays ended.  We all ended up sick the weekend after the the 1st, Lorelei's mom in the hospital unrelated to flu.  More about this will be at Pics & Pieces later, but for now just want to get on with it and enter Barn Charm once again.
This barn was seen somewhere south of Indianapolis on our way home from Tennessee this fall.  I like the vivid colors used in the quilt square.
And the one above and the one below were taken south of Indianapolis...maybe even a little west.
All three are drive-by shots.  All three taken as we headed west in the evening.  So, not the greatest way to take shots, but could not resist trying.

They would be hard to resist. The bright colors on the quilt square are really eye-catching!

Hello Rose - at last! :)
I like that bold quilt square - turkey tracks I think.
All the barns you found have their own special charm.
Will be looking for updates. Take care.
Welcome back to blogland!

Welcome back! You found 3 wonderful barns. I like the quilt on the first, the flag flying next to the second, but the third is my favorite. It reminds me of a New England barn.

All three are excellent as drive-by shots for their sharpness and detail. They are beauties too.

I'm glad you]re back to blogland, Rose. I have been wondering where you've been. I'm so sorry your daughter has been in the hospital.

These barn photos are great. I love how the last one fills the frame.

Hi Rose - it is quite good to be back isn't it? :)
January is such a flat month don't you think - I think I may have lost my get up and go for a while there!!!
I love your barn shots - especially the first one with the lovely colourful badge at the top.
