Mitch Spence level-classic March 30, 2011

That's a great choice for the theme, Nikki. I especially like the fact that this old rusty wagon is propped up there like that, as though someone really intends to replace its wheels one day. #9326587

Karen E. Baumann March 30, 2011

More and more barns are looking like this one...slats open to the wind and elements... finally giving way to the weather, age and lack of care. Glad you captured this on a sunny day so the light would show its amazing shadows. HTD! #9327009
