The Barn with the pretty mural

 I came upon this barn early in the morning.  The sun was still pretty low in the sky.  I thought this barn was so pretty!  As I drove past,  I glanced back to see what the other side looked like.
 I'm SO happy I did.  If I hadn't I would have missed the beautiful mural painted on the other side!
 I did a U-turn and came back to take a few pics.  This barn is on such a lovely, well kept farm.

I'm so happy I found it! Linking to Barn Charm.

Did you notice there is fog around the cattle in the mural...I think whoever painted the mural painted it at the time you took your picture...because the fog was starting to rise and lift its' veil.
beautiful

This is a beautiful barn! I love the mural and the stone foundation. I have a similar photo as the first one that I will post on Barn Charm.
You find the best barns!

The barn is beautiful and the mural is a bonus! It pays to look at things from all angles. :)

Love the mural! That is so neat and different from the quilt blocks I see so often around here.

The barn by itself is beautiful, but I'm so glad you looked back and saw the mural. It's wonderful!

Leave It To Davis said...

I'm with Elaine! The barn all by itself is just so unique with it's rock foundation....I have never seen anything like it!! And then you add the mural...it's a treasure!!! I would have turned around for more pictures, too!

Mari said...

You did great! The barn is gorgeous and so nicely kept up. I love the shot with the sun flare.
