Cocke county Tn is the location and probably shot it 40 years ago. Can’t remember what camera.

RFF member, David Jenkins has published a very good book of photos of the many barns painted to read "See Rock City atop Lookout Mountain" . I saw these barns in the 50's and 60's as they were all over the southeastern US. The 8th wonder of the world could not match my expectations in mid 60's when I finally traveled up Lookout Mountain after decades of seeing the promotions. I am not sure if any of these barns remain today. So good thing he documented them back in 1966. It is still available used on Amazon. I have purchased a copy of this.

In East Tn around where I live there are several still standing. I think I have one I shot on 5x7 but most are in places where you can’t safely stop and get a shot.

I have a soft spot for Quonset Huts, having grown up not far from Quonset Point Naval Air Station in RI. They were invented there during wartime so that the Construction Battalions could erect them quickly while on the move. An architect friend once told me that they are the only purely indigenous architectural form developed in America; he squirmed when I mentioned that Native Americans were putting up structures long before Europeans arrived. Nevertheless, his point is still interesting if one keeps in mind this Colonialist dismissal of the previous 20,000 years of Indigenous habitation. Not the first time...
OK, enough of the pedantic digressions. Here's my offering:

Estancia, NM

Just a few miles north west of Kingston, ON. I smiled when I saw the basketball net attached to the barn..

Here’s one that was hiding in my archive from fifty years ago.
