Gone but not forgotten

 When our girls were young...pre-teen....we often took them to this creek.  They waded, caught crawdads, snakes (garter snakes), or anything they could find, and Roger and I waded and fished.  We passed this barn so, so many times.  Then, a few years ago it was no longer there, nor could you see a sign that any barn had ever been there.  

Looking through...

 I tried to place this barn by the photos surrounding it and could not quite remember where it was taken.   It has seen better days, but I love the look of it.

Round barn, log cabin, and more...

This round barn is what originally what drew me to this place.  I don't remember where I heard about it.  It is not in my book A Round Indiana, Round Barns of Indiana by John T. Hanou.

This log cabin is at the Skinner Farm Museum, too.  It was moved there; I don't remember where it was in its former life.  And notice in the background is a brick home.  It is two stories, and is a fairly big home...and it was moved there from a few miles away!  I do not recall if the round barn was already there or if the guy moved it there, too.  I think most buildings there are buildings he moved there.

I don't know why I am showing this one...I don't remember a thing about it.  I like that it is old...I like that it is logs with the ends notched.

I hope you enjoyed seeing these.

Old Barn from the Land of Lincoln

I ran across this the other day when looking through the archives and immediately thought I would use it today.
I am not sure where it was taken...somewhere over in Illinois. It looks like it has been in a bit too much wind. If you want to join the Barn Charm Meme, check out Tricia's Bluff Area Daily blog.

Old barn

In my opinion, there is something so appealing about a barn/snow scene. I shot this photo over the weekend and decided to use it for the new barn meme started by Tricia over at the Bluff Area Daily blog....see her there if you want to join or just check out the submissions.

Old.....for old barns....

I am not sure this is a barn, but I am posting it for the Old Barn meme.
It is so big, and the only thing near is a farm so i don't know what else it could be. If you want to see more barns or want to join the meme, pop on over the Tricia's Bluff Area Daily blog to join.
