It looks like R.I.P. for an old friend--sad. Nice photo, by the way.

Looks like it has withstood a lot in it's day and I am betting it will stand a while yet. Those old barns were mostly made with dovetail joints an held together with wooden pegs. A lot more flexible than stiff studs and metal collars held by metal nails. I recall in the 50's in RI we dismantled my grand father's barn, moved it to a new site and re-assembled it using for the most part the same wooden pegs. For all I know at this point it could be still standing

Pretty. I'd say it's melting back into the countryside. Nice shot of this old barn.

Nice shot. Wonder if the river changed course over the years. Can't believe someone would build so close to water.
