Okay, I have been driving Spotswood Furnace
Road to River Road for the last two years and just a little less than a month ago saw these two barns on a property out there.

I stopped this morning to capture some quick cellphone captures which I turned into photographic art.

I guess the moral of the story is keep your eyes 👀 looking and you shall find new old stuff…or something like that…

This is the capture I took from a public road in 2020, which would lead to me meeting sweet Donna.

“On A Cloudy Day” opened the door to the history of this farm’s family and history.

Here are some of my favorites when we visited Donna’s place the first time in 2021 after meeting her.

I will share next, the photo taken from public road that was in newspaper that led to me meeting her.

You have seen other captures which I have taken of this barn and farm since 2020 when I first saw it.

My initial photos were from the public road. When one of them made a local newspaper for a solo exhibit of mine the owner came to the show.

I was at the door of the country club greeting
guest and Donna walked up and said, “I am looking for Dawn Whitmore.”

I replied something along the lines of that was me.

She said, “My barn was in the paper and is a part of the exhibit. It is entitled, “On a Cloudy Day.”

My first response: “I took the photo from the public road and didn’t enter the property.”

We would quickly learn Donna is one of the sweetest ladies. She invited us to the farm to see everything up close. Our first visit would be in 2021 with snow. I will share some of those captures later.

The capture shared today is from the Salem Fields Church’s Photography LifeGroup Annual visit to Donna’s farm. Remember I said she is the sweetest lady. She lets us come and walk here property, be with the cows and yesterday I even saw a bald eagle while there.
