Barn Charm and a Rainbow

I showed you a picture of the rainbow the other day.  Here are a couple more.  On one side of the road the cows were grazing in the field.


On the other side of the road is a barn.  You can't see the double rain bow in these photos.  But, can you see the wind tower over the shed in the right hand of the photo? There were several along there.  I just didn't get them in the picture.

Barn Charm Gone

This farm has been in my friend, Eugene's, family for 3 generations.  His son and daughter-in-law are farming it now.  It's a beautiful place where they raise cattle, corn, and soybeans.


First is the farm house with a big wrap around porch built in 1930


A little out building 


The barn built in 1938

Another photo of the barn with the silos



The whole looks of the place was changed New Years night when the barn burned to the ground.  So sad.     Thank God there were no cattle in the barn so no animals were hurt.  They think is was an electrical fire that started in the haymow.  I am so happy that I got these photos last summer.

Unique Fence Posts

These photos were taken when I took my friend to his daughter's at Onamia.  They live on an acreage and raise a few cattle.  It was a foggy, drizzly day so the photos aren't the best.  But I wanted to show you the unique fence posts they have.  The area is very rocky so they put the rocks to good use as fence posts and they are huge.

Thanks for stopping and have a great day.
Praying for all those affected by Sandy

Rural Scene

As I was driving past this pasture the other day I just had to stop and take a picture of the cattle standing in the shade out of the hot afternoon sun.




I am happy to say we had over an inch of rain last night!!
