Old Barns of Iowa

Oct 21 2008

Ever since I was a child I have been fascinated with old barns.
I can remember driving to my grandparents house in Iowa and staring out the window searching for the old broken down barns. This past weekend I had the opportunity to travel around some hilly back roads of Iowa searching for barns of my childhood. Here are some photo’s from the trip.

I have a collection of old barn pictures too, having lived most of my childhood on various ranches in Washington during the depression.

Would be interested in a B&W picture of me Great Uncle’s homestead? It had to be taken in the erly 1900’s or before. It was in Washington, near what my Dad called “Big Bend” country along the Columbia River.

You have some god ones here. Tanks for posting them.

I’m at the end of life and would love for my childrens children to see the stories alive, my better half says it is BS but I can pull a story out of the air and intertain the kids. They are polite and like them.
What I am asking is your premission, (I would want some one to ask, rather then not)! It is for my kids to have something of me when I am gone, and that is it!
