Old Barns And Old People...!


Sort of feeling my age here lately, so when I found this video I thought it was appropriate!

Don't think I've ever seen this one before, but it's pretty cool! I hope you like it...even you youngsters!



Sorry about yesterday, but I just needed a break. You know how it is, right?

I have some major concerns about the upcoming storm season, but I'll talk them over with everyone tomorrow, OK? I'm probably going to need some input from my friends on a couple of things that have the potential to be problematic.

Until then, let's get some fresh coffee and sit on the patio. I'm hoping for some rain today, but I'm not holding my breath!

If you do get some rain send it this way, please. And yes, everyone needs a break.

Bubba,
I know you posted this video just for me. It seems I have been questioning so much lately because everything appears to be falling apart. I needed this reminder and the tears I shed also.
We are expecting more storms and I will be happy to send some rain your way and also to Momlady.
Beautiful post. Love you.

We all need to take a break once in awhile, missed you but understand completely.
I think we are in the same boat needing rain right now. I hope its more than lighting and thunder so it will help put out our fires up here in the mountains.
Pass the pot please and we can hold each other up. :)

I've been having a LOT of problems with Blogger of late. And, I read in other blogs that they are too. I also enjoy the comments and the connections to other like-minded people. Just something else to stress us all out, I guess.

Yep. I have met a few people that were willing to pay four times the price of a new board for them old ones. kinda makes us old timers worth a lot more than some think. Also ya do realize that if there were no old people there would be no old barns. Somebody had to build um.

Loved the old barns, lots of em around this area. Hope u can get outa the city some day.
Don't know why i can post here and not on DDs. Really strange.

Hey Momlady...
Rain seems to be scarce in a lot of places...and overdone in others!

Too bad we can't hit a happy medium, isn't it?

Thanks for dropping by today, my friend!


Hey Sis...
Glad you liked the video! We all go through some rough times, but it's always a good thing to know we aren't alone!

Beautiful old barns, aren't they? Sort of reminds me of uncle Bill's place!

Thanks for coming over this morning!


Hey JoJo...
It's been a wild ride as far as weather goes this year!

The part that bothers me the most is that our storm season has just started here on the coast!

Thanks, sweetie, for coming by today!

HermitJim said...

Hey DD...
I'm glad you liked it, buddy!

Let's hope there is a lot of truth in those words!

Thanks for coming by this morning!


Hey Sharon...
Blogger can be a pain in the backside, that's for sure! Still, it's a good way to stay in touch with all my 'net friends!

I'm so glad you could come over today!


Hey Bob...
Guess we are just more valuable than we realize, huh?

I think the reason that older structures like the old barns are so popular is the fact that you can see they have a lot of characture!

Just like us older folks, I guess!

Thanks for the visit, my friend!


Het Trouble...
Guess I'll be able to get out when it's meant to be! Somethings are just not in our control, ya know?

You ought to take some pictures of the older buildings. Always good to have a record of something built so long ago!

I really appreciate you coming by today!

MamaHen said...

I hope you are feeling better today Jim. I know what you mean about needing a break every so often. Hope you have a great day today!

HermitJim said...

Hey ER...
Just getting a little lazy in my old age, I guess!

I really do appreciate your taking the time to drop by today! It means a lot, thanks!

Yep.
We have room ifn ya should need it for a bit. A back porch & coffee too. Can't vouch for the rain tho.
YOF

Crai said...

Yeah that's a nice one. And I like the idea that we can share our wisdom as we get older, letting someone use our old grey boards to beautify something new, rather than sitting and rotting in the field.
