Sunday Stills : Old Barns

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was old barns.

These are all Minnesota Barns located within a mile or two from our home.

Bridges Barn

This is Bridge’s barn.  It got a new roof last summer.

Donnies Barn

Donnie’s barn.

Old Yliniemi Barn

I am well acquainted with this barn and have milked many a cow inside.  By hand and with milking machines.

Old Henderson Barn

This beautiful old barn was built by my husbands Grandfather.  It is a tin barn..you don’t see many tin covered barns in this area.

There are not as many barns as there were years ago..years ago every section of land would have a barn. Have a good week everyone:)

Sunday Stills : Barns

The Sunday Stills Challenge this week was barns, but Ed said " Go beyond the typical barn shot."
Luckily I have good neighbors with a very old barn. I wish I knew when it was built, I should have asked. I know it is way older than me, because it is part of my childhood memories. It is the only haymow in these parts that has real steps instead of a ladder. As I stood there and looked at the roof from the inside, I could almost hear the barn builders working..heaving up the boards.. nailing.. talking.. telling stories.. :)
