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.

Hi Sandy,
ReplyDeleteNow 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
Love Jennifer's work. She is coming right
ReplyDeletealong. 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.
