Kentucky Hay Barn.....Oil......9 x 12

This barn was on the way to Murray Kentucky. We were going

to Kentucky Lake for the weekend, and when we past this barn, I

had to get out and take several pictures. They were also

cutting tobbaco behind the barn and had all the equipment

for harvesting tobbaco sitting around the barn. Coming from

the "Bootheel" of Missouri, we do not grow any tobbaco, and

it is interesting to see the harvest. The tobbaco is hung in the

rafters of the barns, the doors are closed, and a smoke curing

process begins. The tobbaco barns line the roadway in every

shape, age, and size. It is now in vogue to paint the barns black,

which causes them to stand out in the fields.
