Description
When I look at this old red barn that I recently digitally enhanced, unforgettable feelings of nostalgia come over me. I am reminded of how much fun it might be for a child to wander into a dilapidated old barn on a sunny summer day and discover a hayloft and ladder, and perhaps a bale of hay along with a few chickens. This would be a perfect place to explore and discover what old farm treasures might be hidden away in some remote corner. The broken windows and missing door would be an open invitation for certain wild birds to find a place in the rafters to build their nests.♥
