the haymow



My grandfather, Dad and Uncles logged and sawed the lumber for this barn in 1940.


Just look at the structure of the loft. They didn't hire an archetect, and probably didnt even have a blue print for the building. They didnt have electric saws or nail guns. Every piece of wood was cut, fitted, and nailed in place by hand.


I see my Grandfather is still watching me. I feel like I am trespassing. I wish I could tell him how much I appreciate this barn.
