Sad Ontario Barn

 Barn outside Beeton, Ontario

Another sad barn, I'm afraid, on its way to being reclaimed by nature.

 Closer look at barn

In celebration of the old and wonderful "stuff", I  am connecting to Rubbish Tuesday HERE.

  1. Looks like you captured that barn in the nick of time! Lots of barns like that in our neck of the woods. They have a kind of haunting beauty to them, in my opinion.

  5. How sad, indeed. When most of these structures have disappeared I suppose someone will save the last few.

  11. It is sad. It looks like that tree or the bushes grew up right in-between them. Someone would love those barn boards though. :)

  15. There is a lot of really nice aged wood there that could be re-used for interior wall paneling.

  21. Makes for striking images! All that dilapidated, weathered wood surrounded by the lush green and blue skies. Wonderful set!

  22. We have many around here like this one. They are a sad sight! I wish they would either be fixed up or torn down, do you agree?

  23. Nice photos.
    I am curious - is there a lake in the b/g or is it all just the big blue sky. I had to look up Beeton, Ontario. I see it is located by a decent size lake.

    Have a Beautiful Day!
    Peace :)

  34. Yes, EG, but some clever recycler will use those old boards in a lovely new building or restoration.
