Ghosts of Buildings Past by casechaser

0930_23: I like how you used barn siding as your background Shads. Even the barn is reflecting of past days of glory. A really great entry and it should win the contest. You know how I like barns.
If I wasn't such a Scrooge, I would buy this barn and repair it. Or you could. :)
