The more time I spend in the agriculturally-rich Garrett County, the more I am drawn to photograph its barns.
By my count, this is the seventh post I have created that centered around a barn located in either West Virginia, Western Maryland or Western Pennsylvania. Every barn is has its own shape, color and personality. They look different at different times of the day.
Barns are a link to our past. Even in Garrett County, which is still dominated by farmland, it is touching to see barns like this one, which are surrounded by new development , preserved in pristine form.
I love the slope of this barn and the way in which the barn’s color contrasts with the tall yellow grass that skirt’s the structure.
To see another Garrett County barn, please check out my Garrett County (MD) Farm Scene. I think you will like it!
Oh, and here is Garrett County Barn # 1
Thanks for dropping in, Rob.

I find it very interesting that you are attracted to these barns. I grew up in Western PA so I know what you mean by every barn has its own personality. I always thought it was “normal” until I moved away at 18 and noticed that every other barn I’ve ever seen is red and consists of a standard build. The area is truly beautiful, especially Deep Creek.
Great shot! The time of day was perfect for that photo.

Western Pa is a real treasure trove, especially Somerset County, not only does it have a lot of beautiful farms, but a good number of covered bridges. Thanks so much for the comments.

It absolutely does. Too bad you don’t know how beautiful it is until you move away from it.
