Today is World Pizza Day! What does that have to do with barns... well, I found a way. Recycle your pizza box into a barn sculpture, worthy of being displayed in your barn. Have you been watching the Olympics on CBC?

Have you ever seen a stone barn in Ontario? This one is in Grey County.. I don't think I have ever seen this, or another stone barn here, in Ontario. More often in European places, and usually quite a bit older. #SaveOntarioBarns www.ontariobarnpreservation.com/2021/05/17/a...
