What a beautiful photo! There is nothing as attractive as a red barn in winter! Love the shadows on the snow and the trail of footprints that show this barn is still in use. Lovely winter scene, Deb!

Thanks Karen! I agree on the red barn in winter. The owner celebrates every five years with a public event. It is 131 years old this year. President Herbert Hoover lived near the barn when growing up and it is believed he played in the barn.
