The Bicentennial Barn in Athens County is looking a bit shabby but I couldn’t resist swinging by for a quick picture this weekend.
Each of Ohio’s 88 counties received the gift of a specially painted barn as part of Ohio’s bicentennial celebration back in 2003. I have written about this barn a couple of times – once as a young newspaper reporter and once on this blog. In fact, I hope you’ll go read the blog story by clicking here.
The sky was a rich blue on Saturday and the bend in the road is such that it always makes me want to drive new roads. Instead, I drove home and cleaned my house but at least I had a moment to enjoy this day and place.
Sometimes we need that, even those brief moments, to recharge and be ready for whatever lies ahead.
Make the Journey Fun 
Looks like it was a beautiful day for a drive!
It was gorgeous. I was both happy to be out and sad that I was going home to work. But now that the house is clean I’m free to wander with a clean conscience….
