This morning, I drove to beautiful downtown Douglasville, PA. My path took me past the Limerick Nursery where they had a sign out saying, "We are so excited about Spring, we wet our plants!" I can relate to that!
I quickly snapped this photo from my car while driving back to the office this morning. When I was a little kid, I remember seeing a ton of cows here - when the family went to Swenksville's firehouse for a smorgasbord dinner, something we often did.. I can still taste those dinners - the hushpuppies were out of this world.
My cellphone has a crummy camera, but I like what it did to this scene. It seems a little haunted to me...
I've been really busy of late - I've a bunch of things to post - but haven't the time to do so... yet. I got the following gem in an email - it simply shouts "Spring is coming!!!!"
*Giggles* The stories this photo could tell... or make me tell.... :)

Oh that barn would be fun to explore...at night!
"Wet my Plants"...Good one! I love old barns and imagine the stories they could tell. I'm wondering if the road crew has a little bit too much time on their hands. I would love to come across something like that though, pretty clever. I am so ready for spring, even though we didn't have it even close to as bad as you did back east, just dark and dreary mostly.
I see a mini series or a reality show with the cone person :) How cute and imaginative! That barn is really neat looking; you are right, it does look a bit haunted with the effect of the picture. It is good to see that spring is starting to blossom or bloom over in your part of the country and that people are so excited about it they are eagerly wetting their plants!
betty
Well, even if that barn isn't haunted, I bet it houses a lot of old stories.
Busy is good, right? We can wait...but don't keep us in suspense too long ;)
my husband took dozens of pictures of old barns in different stages of disrepair. This one is eerie all right!
That old farm definitely looks haunted!
I hope you're taking advantage of any nice weather coming through your area.
I'm with you. That photo is way cool. Barn charm indeed!
We've been busy here too. Got your sweet card. Talk about brightening my day! Thank you so much.
I have so much to post about. It is overwhelming to try to get back into the routine.
Let your imagination go wild on that OCHAman!
Huge hugs.
I love that sign!!! Wet my plants--LOLOL!
The photo does look a bit sad when you said what it used to look like with lots of cows. Kind of empty.
Love the orange weird traffic man! Now that's something I've never seen before.
Spring is coming. :)
That is one tall Highway man! I bet that was a cool bold farmstead in it's hay day!
Oh I like good hushpuppies too...I wish we had a Capt'D's' with catfish and hushpuppies..yum! :)
I'm afraid there are a lot of barns around here that look like that old barn....fallen down and in disrepair. Sometimes you wonder what stories those barns could tell. I'm sure there are some doozies.
Nice highway man. Someone would be glad to know you posted the pic. ;)
Spring began today... somewhere... somewhere other than here. Our day was full of on and off snow showers and a brisk wind. They say we might get a snow storm next week. Hmm...
Love the old barn. There are several around I want to shoot.
I love the cone man!
