As a young boy, I grew up on a small farm in the midwest. I played and worked in the loft of a massive wood barn built in the 1870's by a man named C.D. Hahn. I always remembered that because it seemed to me that he must have taken pride in his work, as his name was done in 2 foot tall letters below the peak on the end wall.
Despite being painted over numerous times, the letters still showed through. My wife also grew up on a farm in mid Nebraska and played in a huge barn that had a loft big enough to play basketball in. She has many fond memories of that barn. As we grew up, we watched these barns being dozed into a pile and burned with more and more frequency, often with need for only a little repair to remain standing for many more years of service.
