Missouri Hwy 65 Barn


Not sure of the nearest town for this barn, but it's along Hwy 65 going to BransonI've always thought the shape of it was interesting.  This shot was taken quickly from a driveway along the busy highway.

  1. Great barn, Cheryl... That looks like a fairly large barn --and well-built and well-taken-care-of...

    Hugs,

  5. It almost looks like the back part was added later. It is intriguing.
    The lightning rods on top drew my attention as well.
    Lovely find!

  6. I take photographs of barns too. LOVE them. This one you snapped is quite interesting. looks like it was put together over time with an addition here or there.

  7. I always wonder what was going through the person's mind when they decided on their barn design. I wonder if part of this barn was an add-on. Love the photo.

  11. It is definitely interesting Cheryl! Love the wonky gates :) The posts for the fence look like they are dancing! I don't know if I am going to make Barn Charm this week. We were in Springfield all day yesterday and back on the road this morning early!

  15. I don't think that barn is near me, but if you went 65 to Branson you pretty much passed my house AND you could have waved at me at work.

    Funny.

  16. Cheryl, there's a new barn in town with exactly this shape. (Have I already mentioned this?) It is so unique and I always expect to see them in the Mid-West so seeing one in my own hometown was great. It certainly doesn't have the vintage charm of this one, however. This one knows some things.

  27. I recognized this barn immediately ;) Will watch for it next time we head to Branson! Nice shot. Sometimes it is a little tricky getting those pictures taken!

  28. I'm always surprised that barns come in so many shapes and sizes, especially when you consider that way back when most houses were built in minimal shapes in any given area. And I never tire of seeing all these barns.

  29. That barn is unique, I don't know that I have ever seen one shaped like that. Kind of neat though

  32. A fun barn picture as usual. I get so mad that I will see a barn to take a picture and I forget my camera. One of these days I will post one too.
    Thanks for the barn picture today.

  33. There must be a book somewhere that explains all these different barn styles!

  34. This barn has some unusual lines to it. The little loft entrance on the from is definitely unusual for our part of the whorl. It looks to be in good working condition.. genie

  42. Now that's a neat old barn- I don't remember it from our trip on that highway, but I'll be sure and look next time. It really does look like one piggybacked onto another.
