And even sadder - one huge old barn had to be torn down because some jerk stole most of the interior supporting structure out of it :-(JustGailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08948391538309176039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4251826517940652812.post-9202331950611556872017-05-11T13:45:57.836-07:002017-05-11T13:45:57.836-07:00So glad your woodchucks are keeping the skunks in ...So glad your woodchucks are keeping the skunks in line. I've had a couple skunks at my house (one got moved out to the country) and I always worry about Zorro getting "skunked". I do hope you are writing these stories in some kind if scrapbook. It's an amazing change of uses over the years and I'm sure future generations will find it interesting too.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00862692878882330794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4251826517940652812.post-9271907983411965142017-05-09T14:03:54.671-07:002017-05-09T14:03:54.671-07:00Sharon, I love this insight into where you live an...Sharon, I love this insight into where you live and the history of the place.

I am surprised the Smoke House is still standing/leaning. That old gray color is a beautiful patina. Thanks Sharon for showing us around.

As soon as you mentioned the milk house I was wondering if there was a well in it. All the old buildings on our farm were taken down years ago.

Wish I had photos of my Dad's sheds, really just one could have been called a barn, but it was all corrugated iron, sides, roof and doors.Nancy Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11854698513524662527noreply@blogger.com
