Description

Our photo meet-up group was at the Howell Living History Farm yesterday, for their annual Plowing Meet. The meadow was needed for the obstacle course, so the sheep were relegated to the barn for the day. I think they were enjoying the shade.

Love the title as you certainly did get quite a selection of colors and each one different. I also enjoy how you left part of the doorway in with its peeling paint. Marvelous detail and textures and a beautiful finish my friend. #10305122
