Friendly Barn

Posted on March 22, 2015 by Mike

An old Colorado barn appears content and even cheerful. Is that a smile on its face?

Yes, exactly dear Mike, but so sad seems that abandoned isn’t it? Thank you, love, nia

I found the concrete side ramp interesting. Undoubtedly to aid in loading up livestock/grain for market.

  Yes, a concrete loading ramp. I imagine it will still be there long after that barn has vanished.

  Someone used to live there, and there are several other farm buildings on the same property. Very few barns here are abandoned…..most are still in use.

I have a minor obsession with taking photos of inanimate objects with “faces” and also old buildings. That makes me love this picture doubly.
