As Tex says, put a fence in front of it....

Just showing a few fences...the one above is almost the same photo as posted for last Friday....but heck, I am posting it anyway cause it shows the barn.
This is from up in Parke County...I like the sign beside the gate.
And this one is a drive-by....it is a barn we pass in coming and going to see Lorelei.

Linking to Friday's Fences....

That poor barn in the first photo! But I love the next one, with the matching cheery fence!

Judy said...

I love them all Rose and I want that sign.

Lois Evensen said...

Nice! We saw plenty of barns on the road today, but the weather is so bad I didn't take many pictures.

Put a fence in front of it... what?

Carletta said...

I hope the cows in the first shot are taken way better care of than the barn has been.
Love the white fence fronting the red barn in the last; but the second shot is my favorite. What a charming scene of the red barn surrounded by the trees and the red gate adds to the charm along with the sign.
Really nice finds Rose.

These are great pictures. That first barn looks so sad.

George said...

You've got a nice variety of fences here. I like the sign in your second photo as well.

Hello Rose! I have decided to join Fridays Fences, and look who I have found...my old friend from Pics and Pieces with a wonderful photography blog! I'll be back! I do love your pictures of fences for today....really really nice!

Lesley said...

I really like the second one. There is something about a scene that you just know will be completely obscured come summer that appeals to me.

DawnTreader said...

I like the middle one best, with the red gate in front of the red barn, and all the trees. Different!

Linda said...

I love that sign in the 2nd one! And I like the red/rose gate...but if you slap a coat of red paint on most anything, I will like it! I do wonder about those poor cows though...

MadSnapper said...

well i certainly have a lot of country accents in my house right now. all 3 are my favorite, can't even choose. love them ALL. i love cows so that is good.

I kept coming back to the first photo. With the animals in front it reminds me that the possessions treasured by one generation are not always seen in the same way by subsequent generations who often prefer newer technology or styles or convenience.

The way you captured the disrepair of barn and fence along with the beautiful snow and animals (yes, they look pretty to me) created an intriguing image that made me want to look and look and look and think. Good work!

Susan said...

The sign is funny! And so true! Love your pictures. All so beautiful.

Linda said...

lovely group of photos

don said...

A fine collection of fence shots. They go so well with barns.

Ellie said...

Three very different pictures - that poor first barn looks very run down, I love the red in the 2nd and do you see those weird branches in those trees in the third?

gtyyup said...

Lovely shots. I can just imagine the first barn in its day~

Chuckle...yep...great sign!

Elaine said...

I love all three shots! Three lovely barns set off beautifully by the fences.

Margaret said...

The rickety barn in the top is wonderful and those stately trees in the third are a show stealer.

Liz said...

Great shots! The last is my favourite... perfect!

genie said...

Number 2 and 3 are great but poor little #1 looks a bit worn with the weathering of time. They are all fine captures, though. Oh, how I have grown to be on OCD barn watcher. I have it bad!!!! Love the past. genie

Faye said...

What an unusual shaped barn in photo 3--do you know anything about the people who live there. Am wondering if they are Dutch origin. In the first photo, that old barn just refuses to fall down, doesn't it? And I guess you could call that a "cobbled" fence surrounding it!

Jan n Jer said...

It's amazing how a fence can add so much to a shot! Your photos prove this!

Anonymous said...

That 1st one is my fave... I know, it's falling apart & it's a wonder the poor thing is even standing, but I love it anyway!

Do you mind if I link up this post? I always want to ask before I do it... =)

Mary said...

You have an endless supply of barns and fences! Always to great to see.

I love barns and old houses too. Love the sign on the second one. Don't think I've ever heard that. Have a happy week.

Kathy said...

A great set of fences. We all love red barns, I guess.

Tatjana Parkacheva said...

Very nice photos.

Regards and best wishes
