I love living in the country and watching how the seasons stitch the hues of planting, cultivating and harvest together to form nature's own quilt out of reds, blues, yellows, greens.
The colors of the rainbow.
And in and around it all is the barn. My city childhood was often lost in dreams of playing in a barn loft, hiding in the hay, hearing the crunching sounds of a hungry horse meditatively chewing timothy hay below. We have a small barn here at Iron Acres. In the last 17 years it has known the joy of kidding, kittens, hatching peeps, escaped bunny corralling, and endless rounds of storing hay up for the winter and feeding it out until spring.
Our little barn is empty now, but the loft is still a wonderful place to hide...
...and to dream...

Jas.. once again, wonderful photos! We have had some rain-- two good rain showers in less than 24 hours. Could it be that we have turned the proverbial weather corner?.......... L
What a lovely Skywatch post! The cloudy skies and charming ,cozy barns are ideal subjects.
I too think of barns as wonderful, glowy,cozy places. Of course they are also spidery, straw-sneezy places too!
Thanks for the very nice addition to Skywatch Friday!
That barn and the atmosphere are gorgeous.
