Architectural August 2

Next stop on the barn tour is a revisit to Mountaindale Farm and the massive barn used for drying the garlic among other things. It's been in the family for more than four generations but has been used (and at one time not used at all) for different crops by different generations.

Thank you Julia, Jane, Debs, Nicole, Rick, Pam, and Joan!

[Nicole Campbell]

It looks more like a house than a barn

[Vesna]

Agree with Nicole

[Hazel]

I love garlic and never thought about it having to be dried. This would make a lovely dwelling house!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@nicolecampbell Once inside, you'd know it was a barn- lots of stalls and farm equipment! As well as drying garlic! Thanks Nicole!
@vesna0210 Thank you Vesna! See my reply to Nicole!
@quietpurplehaze Thank you Hazel! It's interesting to note that each farmer has their own twist to the drying method! http://365project.org/olivetreeann/themes-and-comp/2015-07-03 http://365project.org/olivetreeann/themes-and-comp/2015-07-18

I see big door, but on this side, it looks like a house.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@vesna0210 Thank you Vesna! One walk inside though and you know it's a barn! Lots of stalls for horses and many garlic stalks out to dry.

[Vesna]

It's interesting! Thank you, @olivetreeann.

[summerfield]

quite an unusual barn. well, different than the dilapidate ones we're used to photographing.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@summerfield Thank you Vikki- oh and thanks for the fav on the oil painting! This one is definitely old- but it's been kept up really well.
