Yesterday I posted about some abandon and unused buildings on some ranch property we purchased. The insides are full of barren and deteriorating walls.
The ceiling joists are sagging. But this was built as best as could with what there was at the time many decades ago.
The dogs are checking things out.
Should I make this my art studio? :)
I love old buildings and things so much.
Our family purchased an adjacent ranch recently that has many old and unused buildings on it. Here is one that used to hold grain. I always love red barns. They look especially wonderful in the winter as they stand out against all the cool and barren landscape. Here are some cool old dividers. I'm not sure what are in them. But we are storing four wheelers in this building. Here is another barn that had a grain mill at one time but we gave it to some Amish friends (the millstone that is). It has to be hooked up to a tractor and belt to use, so they are prepared to use it. Another view of one of the barns...
Hi everyone! I am currently out west going snowboarding and checking on my property and ranch. I has fun snowboarding and now am doung some work and visiting friends out here.
I am just getting around to some pictures I took last summer and spring that I have wanted to put to paper. Here is speed painting of lilacs in blue vase. The lilacs bloom in May and sometimes April in Chicago. But in Idaho they don't bloom til end of May or June. It's really high elevation and farther north. That's why.
Meet Billy the Goat. Billy was purchased by one of our seasonal employees from Mexico to be butchered for meat. But then he and his son grew attached and decided to keep him. But when their work visa expired and they left for Mexico, Billy jumped into our Ranch truck and "adopted" us. Billy loves to climb things. We made some climbing areas out of hay bales and other material for him. The first couple of days he was chained up during the day to keep him from running off and chasing the calves. But now that the calves are gone and Billy is used to his new home, he is free to roam. He has made friends...
