Another barn

July 30, 2008

From Monday’s trip to Paradise.

I know many people like barns, barn settings, old barns, classic barns…. And I am right there with them. For me, it is the setting and the story of farming, ranching, animals - simple, rural life that the setting brings to mind.

On this day, as we drove east over the foothills to the Clark Fork River Valley, we saw a lot of old barns, old log cabins, old sheds, old chicken coops, an old mining shaft structure… weathered, grayed, nearly collapsed structures, dotting the landscape.

As we approached one structure, Bill asked “Do you think that is somewhere someone lived once, a shed or a little barn?”. “Yes”, I said.
