Fall is Coming


One of the sure signs of fall coming is tobacco hanging in the barns. I delivered a quilt for one of our kid's I stitched for Monday in Cross Plains and came home on Hwy 25 and Hwy 49.

no fire in this barn

tobacco being fired in these next 3 barns -- I don't smoke and never have but I sure enjoy driving by and taking a whiff

some only show little smoke while others

show a lot of smoke

doesn't matter if there is a little smoke or a lot the smell is wonderful and signals the arrival of fall

  1. Hi Sandy,
    Now this is something I would love to experience at least once in my life. I don't smoke either but I would like to know what this would smell like and see the barns smoking.
    I love all the pictures you shared so much.
    Hugs,
    June

  2. Love Jennifer's work. She is coming right
    along. Her work is beautiful also.

    The tobacco barns sure take me back a lot
    of years. I remember the barn just across
    the highway from our driveway and every
    fall they fired the tobacco there.
