    Madison County – October 3, 2025

    Another Barn gone. Google street view last saw it August 2014. But the last time it had the Logo in street view was August 2012. And by January 2016, there was nothing there at all. Wilkinson records that the “barn was first dedicated on July 11, 1998, when the logo was painted on the west…

    Clinton County – October 2, 2025

    My notes say that I passed by this Barn on September 23rd, but I didn’t get a picture. And I almost didn’t get a second chance. A short drive from the Greene County Barn, I parked alongside the New Oglesbee Road (Oglesbee, before i71 came through, used to continue south) and waved at someone mowing…

    I always feel awkward driving up to someone’s Barn, whether there is someone around or not. This time, I parked on the grass by the lane leading up to the Barn and waved at someone (who turned out to be Kevin) who was working just up the way near his truck. No need to feel…

    Now a Menards distribution center parking lot, it would seem that this Barn has been gone a long time. The last time it shows up in Google street view was October 2008. Nothing to visit or see here: 8473 State Route 41, north of Washington Court House (39.62343° N, 83.52997° W)

    From what I can find online, the exterior of the Montgomery County Barn was mostly rebuilt. Spectrum News reports that “the original logo [is] preserved underneath the new siding”, and Hagan was brought back to repaint the logo. Watch (youtube) Scott Hagan, The Barn Artist, repaint the Montgomery County Barn! He’s come a long way…

    My friend “typopete” took this photo and shared it with me. It is here by permission, and I’ve encouraged him to share others as he sees them. Ross County was the third Barn to be painted. Where to see and visit: 5287 US 23, south of Chillicothe (39.25162° N, 82.98011° W) Taken by typopete, on…

    Even though I had been looking for this Barn, I somehow managed to pass it, requiring me to find a turnaround a bit farther north. And even then I managed to miss the fact that the nice driveway at 6020 was not the entrance to the Barn. So it it was on the third try…

    Hamilton County – September 23, 2025

    Missing a few trees since Wilkinson visited, this weathered Barn on the eastern banks of the Great Miami River sits tall and proud. I’ve not explored the Great Miami River, choosing to follow the Buckeye Trail up the Little Miami on the other side of Cincinnati. Looking at the topography of the land, I wonder…
