Disaster Sometimes Happens/ or is a Blessing in Disguise?

Next to the last barn curing (Fall ’07), at approx. 11:00 PM one of the barns caught fire.  This barn in turn caught the shelter on fire that stood in front of all the barns, excluding the Roanoke. The shelter burned & the rest of the barns had some heat & fire damage to the front of the barns.  Here is an opportunity for the buyers to come buy some barns to use like they are if they are not concerned about cosmetics or barns that need some repair.  If you are in need of barns, come & be your own judge.   All the rest of the equipment was away from the fire & sustained no damage from that night.
