Yesterday’s post prompted me to unearth an old photo album to find this scene from the farm I grew up on:

Another beautiful barn!
So, this barn is no more? What a shame, I'm so sorry... darn tornadoes!
Don't forget Barn Charm, tonight! =)
You grew up here - how awesome is that! Love the round barn. The whole scene is lovely. I was in
4-H back around that time too.
Your composition is wonderful. You knew what you were doing even back then. :)
I've only seen a few round barns, very cool!
I love this! It's even better that you grew up here. I grew up on a farm, but don't have any pictures of the barn and now it's gone. Glad you have this one!
What a great barn!
The barn is cool, but I can't get over seeing the hogs in the snow. The breed of hogs raised these days would never be able to stand that. I love seeing them.
This is an awesome barn and I love the old picture. I have never seen anything like it. Amazing structure. Round houses for trains but have never heard of round barns for the cows :-) genie
So happy you used that spare film to capture this scene. We are all the better for it.
This was a wonderful barn! So glad you took a photo of it long ago!
Love the round barns. Sad that this one is no more. Of course, those hogs are also no more.....
Cool! I love round barns and have found a few in Vermont. Sad to hear this one is not around anymore...but it is great you were able to preserve it on film.
how sad that it's gone...what a beautiful vintage photo.
YaY! You joined Barn Charm! I'm so glad, too, cuz these old barns are sooo worth seeing & I wanted all the 'Barn Charmers' to see this one! =)
Thanks so much! =)))
Great composition you had in the 1970's already! Can't believe it is gone.... This should be a painting.
A wonderful building to see..
This is really a cool shot. Too bad that this barn no longer exits. It was really a beauty!
This is an awesome photo! Round barns are quite rare. The roof inside would be designed similar to a cathedral. It's nice that you still have that photo. Have you thought of giving a copy to the local historical society if there is one?
I so wish you had taken photos of the inside, but am thankful to at least see this....
Thanks for all the comments! To Pamela...that's a good idea!
It really is a shame that the barn was damaged so badly. It's a neat looking barn. Round, how cool!
I see I commented on this already...I always wondered what happened to to Tricia who had the meme back then.
