My entry for Barn Charm this week is a photo taken a few years ago by my son, Marshall.
This little barn sits just off a busy highway, but it’s hidden behind a row of trees. It’s easy to miss if you aren’t specifically looking for it. The red “wagon” you see parked under the overhang is a peanut drying trailer. Peanuts are loaded into these when they’re harvested. If necessary, the trailers are placed under huge dryers that remove moisture from the peanuts before they’re sold.
This is another one of those barns that I’ve been passing by all my life, but never really noticed until Marshall shared this photo with me.
Thanks for today’s Barn Charm, Marshall. I think your photo looks like a painting.
Linking up to Barn Charm.
these days of mine 
Kudos to Marshall. He’s looking out for his mom and her readers. Thanks.
I agree – this looks like a painting! What a nice find – and nice that our families look for photos for us! Beautiful little barn!
Marshall has a good eye for barns – just like his Mom!

I’ll be trying all day to figure out where this barn is. If you hadn’t seen it, I’m sure I haven’t either. Good job, Marshall!
very nice. great shot. (:
Soft red and soft brush in front of the barn all the way from left to right. Lovely and quiet this morning.
This reminds me of the old barn that was on my grandparent’s property. Gone now, and I wonder, are there any photos of it? Probably not! Thanks for sharing this one! ~ Sheila
Very charming barn! Love all the lush green and that little red charmer all nestled happy in all its charmingness 🙂 It does look like a painting~lovely.
Big thanks to Marshall! Great barn and history for the charm. 🙂
Cute little barn. What I can’t get over is all that “green” around it! Sure sets off the red doesn’t it?

Wonderful photo of a great barn. It’s slowly being encroached upon by nature.
peanut drying trailer. wow. learn something new every day!
thanks, marshall!!!
This was actually a “side-trip” during another trip a few years ago… What’s great about this one is that it looks like it’s out deep in the woods, but is RIGHT off of a very busy road… If you look 90 degrees to the right … there it is!! Thanks for featuring this one, and thanks for the comments!
How nice that you live near the countryside where barns are so charming — I look forward to seeing them each week. We don’t have many barns in Oak Park, but yours always take me back to growing up in the country. thanks so much for sharing!
Great shot, Marshall! I didn’t know that about the peanut trailer. Interesting!
I like the secret place where this barn is located.
Regards and best wishes
Good find, Marshall! I can definitely see this one as a painting. 🙂
…and who knew you had to dry peanuts!??!
I love this barn nestled in all the greenery. It does look like a painting. Interesting about having to dry peanuts.
Great job Marshall!
I can definetly see this as a painting…
This does look like a painting, nice work! You’re getting your roving reporters trained, Dianna! lol
Getting a bit over grown, but looks like it can still be saved… put on some tick & chigger repellent & get to work! LoL! Beautiful barn
And thanks to you for posting & Marshall for shooting this beauty! =)
What a great shot! Nice job by Marshall!
Great barm pic.
I am growing to appreciate old barns since reading your blog. I wish I appreciated them more when I was growing up in Surry and Smithfield.
