Tennessee Barn (Bw) I spotted this old, wooden barn in a hay field on a Tennessee country road near Pikeville, Tennessee. The old barn had many boards that were falling down or missing.

It’s not unusual to see cows and horses in pastures along the country roads of Texas. In fact, we pass these cows several times a week as we travel the country roads near our home. Even so, when I saw the calf, I just had to take a photo. As you can see, this momma … Continue reading

I took this photo on a country road near Memphis, Texas at sunset on a partly cloudy day. As we drove over the top of the hill, I saw the electrical structure standing stark against the sky — just beyond the fence. (There aren’t any wires on the structure because it was part of a new electrical line … Continue reading
This barn caught my eye as we were driving on a country road during a recent trip to Oklahoma. It looked abandoned and as if it had weathered many storms. The red roof was patchy and faded. The walls looked as if someone had started painting and then stopped. Though it was dark inside, I could … Continue reading
