Kawartha Lake Barn

The first European settlers to create homesteads in North America all had barns. Today with the move to cities, farms are no longer as prevalent as they had been in the past. Today abandoned farms are becoming a noticeable feature of the landscape.

Beautiful shot. Whenever I see abandoned barns, I imagine the stories and life that went on there once.

We have abandoned farm houses and barns all over in North Carolina. Larger farms buy up the smaller one but no one ever tears down the buildings.

A shadow falls across the barn from a tall structure out of shot. Draws interest, is it a tree or silo? Nice
