Barn Charm

There's just something about them.
Simplicity.  Purpose.  Beauty.
Home to barn cats.  Barn owls. 
Clandestine nests of hens eggs.  Mewing kittens hidden among the hay bales.
 
Dusty saddles.  Miscellaneous horseshoes.  Odd tools.
And little girls who like to explore and grow up remembering barns with fondness.

  2. We have so many wonderful old barns around here. I would love to see what nifty old farm implements I could find inside...and maybe some antique furniture.. and maybe a few birds nests and kittens and old milk cans...
