This old barn serenely rides the crest of a hill in Warrior, Alabama. I have photographed it many times of the past twenty years or more. This time the colors were enriched by rain and the setting sun.

Somewhere between Huntsville and Scottsboro, Alabama I saw this old barn off Highway 72. The weathered wood gives it character that I like.

Travelers in the Southern United States will see many barns along the highways with “See Rock City” painted on them. These signs were painted on 900 barns by Clark Byers between 1935 and 1969.
I have seen them all my life. What I never noticed until recently were doghouse billboard signs advertising Rock City. Here are two signs that are on Highway 72 in North Alabama.
This first shows the size of the signs.
The next two images are closer pictures that show the detail and construction better.
I passed these signs just before I drove into the storm in my “Angry Clouds in Alabama” post.

The afternoon sun sifts through the leaves onto the roof of this old barn and its surroundings to create a patchwork of light and shade. To me it suggests a peaceful country afternoon. What does it suggest to you?

I love the crisp feeling of the air on early winter mornings. It is so refreshing. Always makes me inhale deeply, the joy of a new day.
