The Old Granary and Mill

For this week's Barn Charm hop, I thought I would feature something a little different, but still related to the whole barn theme.  When we were in Jamesport a couple of weekends ago, I couldn't help but snap some photos of the granary\mill and the farm elevator and silos across the highway from each other.

I love how the camera captured the sun's rays on what was a beautiful day.  Isn't that a cool building?  The bottom had been converted into someone's house and children were laughing and playing outside.

 

That's the Farmer's Elevator in case you can't read that faded paint.  This building isn't in use any more except by kids looking for a place to graffiti.  It's still a cool building, though.

Standing at the bottom of the silo looking skyward.  I love the texture in this picture, with the steel bands and rust patterns reaching for the blue sky.

 

And here's a look at the whole thing put together.

To tell you the truth, there were so many wonderful photo opportunities in Jamesport that I was overwhelmed!  I'll be prepared when I go back for the quilt auction on the 13th, though.  So prepare to be Jamesport'd again!  ;-)
