What Was A Beautiful Barn...

Vacheresse, Vallée d'Abondance, Haute-Savoie, France
17th April 2012

I saw a beautiful old barn, crying out for love and devotion, tender loving care; someone wanting to renovate and turn a tumble down barn into a beautiful chalet style, wooden, environmentally friendly family home, with stunning views up and down the valley.

9th June 2013

I saw the barn again and was not only saddened but quite shocked to see it had fallen, or perhaps been pushed; given a helping hand to fall. Perhaps a bulldozer will move in, shove the debris to one side: A huge crane will come in and maybe a beautiful family home, environmentally friendly, with stunning views up and down the valley will take its place.

I hope so.
