Barn Charm #32

Hold on to your hats fellow blogging friends and barn enthusiasts,

this is one special Barn Charm entry!!

The hubs and I were out and about, mother in tow, when I spotted this...

adorable little, freshly painted barn back in the woods!!

Is this not the cutest thing you have ever seen??

With the little matching picnic table.

Let's back up for a minute.
We were on our way to Panera Bread, to have bagels when I first spotted it.

I asked the hubs to "spin it around",
he said we would stop after breakfast.

Of course, mom agreed. Anything to keep us from stopping immediately.

I will mention here that she is never on my team,

never, not ever!!

Now if you follow my blog, you know they are both hoping I will forget,

but I didn't.

We ate our bagels and were back in the get-a-way car in no time,

there is bail money in the glove box, just in case.

As we were getting close to the barn I could see the owners of the farm,

in their big pick up truck, backing out the driveway!!

Getting the hubs to pull over, was like pulling teeth.

Mom sat quietly in the back seat, praying he wouldn't stop.

The car was still moving when I jumped out.

Anthony and John, father and son, were happy to greet me,
spin their truck around,

open the gate and give me full run of the place!!

There were lots of horses and these adorable Shetland Ponies.

Here's John, in the orange shirt which matches the barn, by the way.

I only took a few pictures,
respecting the fact that they were trying to leave.

Thank you Anthony and John for your kindness

and generosity of spirit!!

Adding a p.s. here, young John came over to the car as we were leaving
and asked me for the name of my blog.
I wrote it down for him, I hope he stopped by!!
