I wonder if many of those farms are now selling off their feed. I remember riding in the hopper of a columbine to keep the grain from piling over the top. I wonder how many kids do those jobs today.Julie Fukudahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15704374750710761269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068392907360378021.post-13276737404237138332017-10-15T18:04:25.690-07:002017-10-15T18:04:25.690-07:00A fair number of old unused silos around here too....A fair number of old unused silos around here too.The Furry Gnomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02485265576983125216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068392907360378021.post-6206236238763129762017-10-15T17:58:33.455-07:002017-10-15T17:58:33.455-07:00Fantastic shots of old barns.Fantastic shots of old barns.Rajeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10325697671806865458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2068392907360378021.post-91756737854306353062017-10-15T08:37:09.741-07:002017-10-15T08:37:09.741-07:00Beautiful old barns!

Neighbors allowed ivy to grow over their septic mounds and have lived to regret it (it clogged up the whole system and it was very difficult to remove and repair the system).<br /><br />(We haven't had measurable rain for a week or more.
