not your ordinary barn... - a photo on Flickriver

            side view.

For a barn lover like myself, it's hard to top the D. H. Day barn. This old structure is appealing on so many levels. I like its architectural design, superb craftsmanship and I think it's atheistically beautiful. I have several barns in my photostream, but as far as these old structures go, this one is my favorite.

The D.H. Day Farm (circa 1890) is a Michigan landmark, which sits just outside Glen Haven. The structure is 116-foot-long, and it dominates the landscape along historic route M-109. The Society of Architectural Historians chose the D.H. Day farm as one of the 50 Most Significant Structures in Michigan. A well deserved distinction, in my opinion !
