Description

This summer image shows the upper portion of a Colony barn with the lower log portion removed, sitting on a slight rise in a grass field in middle ground, presenting the front end to the right and north side to the left. It exhibits some atypical cross bracing boards on the front not seen on other barns, giving it a somewhat "cat-face" appearance. It also exhibits a larger and more ornate cupola on the roof than seen on other local barns. A group of broadleaf trees define the edge of the field at right and left behind the barn. Rounded form mountains are partially visible in background. A variety of white cloud forms dominate the bright sky overhead.
