Barn Treasures


The barns I looked in during my childhood held fascinating items, like horse collars, harness, Model T parts, husking pegs, and etc. Maybe that is why I still like to look around in barns, even if they are the newer pole barns that have replaced most of the old timber construction; I love to admire old treasures. I stopped in to visit a tree planting contractor recently, and he showed me an amazing accumulation of tractors and other machinery he has collected in recent years. In this shot I can see a couple of old crawlers, three tractors, a hit and miss gas engine, a tree planting machine (relatively new), and of course, the two traction engines smiling for the camera.
