Here’s another of our local farming operations. Like many farmers this one supplements his income with other work, specifically mower repairs.

Log barn
This is something you don’t see everyday: a log barn.
The corners are constructed like a classic log cabin.
It’s an old building and shows its age but seems to be holding up. The metal roof helps.
Return to enigma barn
I first posted a shot of this barn almost five years ago. Time continues to do its work on this increasingly frail structure.
Snow screen
It snowed again on Wednesday, all day. I drove by the barn I showed you on Wednesday and thought I’d give you another view, from its front, through the falling snow.
Across the street is the B & B Family Farm, a lavender operation. Lavender is usually photographed in its summer loveliness bursting with color and hinting at fragrance. In winter snow it looks hunkered down in sullen piles of dormancy.
Snow day
I took my camera along as I ran errands on Monday. I know it’s only temporary but everything looked fresh and different with a layer of snow.
I’m partial to the rural landscape in any weather. I especially like the look of a barn in snow.
Lost cause
This is one of those swaybacked barns that’s slowly surrendering to age and the elements, sadly past redemption.
Hidden barn
It’s easy to miss this barn. It’s nestled on a rise behind a quilt store and a few eateries. But it’s still a pleasant surprise.
