Light-Colored Barn

Near Middletown, Virginia

white barnI fell in love with this barn on Westernview Drive. The golden light of late afternoon lit it up, and then I saw goats and horses!

I wonder how long Mr. Goat has been running around with that chain around his neck. Was he chained because he was aggressive? He seemed friendly to our group.

These scenes are from our Custer at Cedar Creek tour. I'm giving them their own post because I couldn't winnow them down to just one photo.

  9. You're right the lighting was great here. It's a cool looking barn and the goat was fun to see. I do hope they remove the chain though.

  11. Wonderful photos. Love old barns, but then who doesn't! : )
    The picture of the goat standing next to the building almost looks like its painted on, except for seeing his shadow.

  13. Beautiful barn but I wonder if the goat wears the chain to make him easier to capture at the end of the day. Beautiful photos, Linda. :o)

  14. I really like the light in your first photo. Perhaps the colorful chain serves as a neck tie for Mr. Goat.
