BARN CHARM TUESDAY

BARN CHARM TUESDAY


While traveling a two lane road to Manistee last year I took this photo of an old run down barn that was on it's way out. I noticed another smaller one in just about  as bad a shape. I loved the shape of the smaller one. The large one had a tin roof. The roof will outlast the building despite the bad winters they have there. 

On the way back home I spotted this one..
It was used as advertising and for their farm. Place was pretty busy. I never stopped but here is the LINK so you can see what they sell. I must check it out if I get back in that area. 

For here.. we are looking at another storm to come through..this time maybe 4-6 inches of new white stuff. Me.. I will wait and see they keep changing the forecast several times a day.

Neat old barns! I live in West Michigan too - between Grand Rapids and Grand Haven. I would like to visit this place sometime.

That's pretty cool to make a restaurant out of a barn! I wonder if the food is good!

Hope the snow passes you by. You don't sound too excited about it.

Wow love those barns if one had a lot of money you could make them into great houses to live in

Shame you didn't go in the market who knows what yummy stuff you could have bought or eaten there

Great post

I'm surprised there aren't more barns of that type around here but I remember more of them like that in other places we've lived. Very nice to see...and I wish indeed we lived where we could go get some fresh fruit!
