Marilyn, those are lovely barn finds. The second one looks like the one my dad had. We kept milk cows, horses, and calves in it. My horse, Dads by title, named Minnie had the first double stall all to herself. She was white mottled with small grayish specks, real pretty, and I rode her to a country two room school for my first two years of high school. The third barn looked like Grandpa's barn. He kept horses in there, no other animals. Both he and my parents farmed with them until just about WWII time when they got tractors. Dads was a John Deere Model B with steel wheels. My SIL (sister-in-law) reads Amish novels, my sister lives 45 minutes north of Amana Colonies in Iowa. She and I are still Baptists though. I came from Tom's Weekend post, your comment there. You are welcome to visit my blogs. I would be pleased. ..

Good Morning Tom,
They sure do. Like getting red barns.

Good Morning Jim,
Thank you telling us about your parents and grandparents barns. That is very interesting. Glad you found us.
Marilyn
That last one particularly stands out.
