Stone foundation

 . . . worthy of more than drive-by-shootings.
But, sometimes that's all you get on a busy highway.

Barn Charm from my hometown




Another barn in my hometown.



These photos were taken on two different days.
One sunny, the other cloudy.

Barn Charm #90, thanks to Dep





Another relative's barn.





We were there another day and I took more pictures.




 This one complete with Cardinal.



There are a lot of barns in my home town.
You just have to look.

Barn Charm 86


This barn is in my hometown and is the subject on one of the town's postcards sold in local shops.  It is not situated where you safely can get a shot from the road.   The owners are distantly related on my mother's side so we stopped one day and asked permission.


It's a beautiful place.

Charming barn and maybe its house


Somewhere in Jackson County, Alabama or extreme southern Tennessee.
This house is across the road.
I wonder if they go together?


"Someone fix me up, please."

In case of any doubt as to its purpose, it's labeled.

Rock City Barn Charm


This barn was in my hometown and was built by my Great Grandfather.

The barn collapsed about two years ago.

I didn't take the photo.  A friend did and I'm so glad he did.

I edited it a few years ago to include my Great Grandparents.



The barn is pictured in this book, but it is just a small black and white in the back.

And here is an article about the barn painter, Clark Byers, from the NY Times.


Do you have a Rock City Barn in your area?

Red Barn Charm



Another visit to these barns.

A hazy drizzly day this time.

See a sunny day photo here.





The farm is surrounded by fields and you can't get close enough for me.

Unless you are brave enough to pull into their drive and knock on the door.  I'm not there yet.
