Photography, memoirs, random thoughts.
Mike I am about to get in my vehicle and drive through the prairies. You have set the mood perfectly with another great shot. Old friends. I like that idea very much.

Drive careful and wave to the gophers.

Mike, this picture brings back memories of my rural childhood. The outbuilding near the silo could be for storage or to enclose a well pump.

You have the advantage of knowing what you see. I grew up in Brooklyn where there were no barns, but many buses.

I like that you kept it in color. It really shows the contrast between the white barn and lush green vegetation.

Handsome barn. Humongous willow! There must be a stream or something nearby. They don’t get that big unless they are close to water. Great shot!
