2010 Shots for Barn Charm

Almost since the beginning of the Barn Charm meme, I have meant to share these photos, but either I have a recent photo I want to share, or else I forget about these. We were coming home from Shipshewana, a different route to the one taken to get there, and this place came into view.
I still do not know the real history of the place....read here to find what I wrote about it back then. These photos are at the bottom of the page, but both posts are about it as they belong together...they are part of the same property.
Wouldn't this make a fine barn to fix up and live in??? I would love to have had a look around inside this place and to have had someone tell me the history of it all.

So at last, here it is....as my entry for Tricia's Barn Charm.

  4. Now that is a barn! It's huge! I wonder what kind of barn it is and if it is still used for "barn" purposes...could be a milking barn considering the length of it. Very impressive, that's for sure.

    Nice photos, too!
