Another Barn Study

One of my recurring themes:  barns.   New ones exist, but I really admire the ones that have stood the test of time.   The barn presented here, only 1.5 miles from my home in Taylor, Texas, has been around since 1900.   It belongs to Mike and Deby Lannen, two wonderful folks who allowed me access to this structure.  At one time, says Mike, a farmhouse stood next to this barn.  It’s now relegated to history, but the barn remains.  These photos were taken just after dawn on Saturday.   After climbing the fence to get to the barn, with permission, of course, I found the grass to be quite high, and wet with morning dew.  Deby gave a warning:  watch out for rattlesnakes.   I am no fan of snakes.  Thankfully, none made their presence known.  It’s all good.
