They think its real neat having battered weathered wood or metal. Not just wall coverings but for in the yard or as furniture and crafts. ITS GREEN/RECLAIMED (if we didn't use it, it would be dumped in a landfill someplace). OH, got to have the history with the "patina". "It was on a hundred year old barn(though only on it for 15 or so), the tales it would tell".
That's all over, not just your area. They come down for numerous reasons. They get in the way, to small, left to fall apart to long,...... Its sad to see them go, just because of the thoughts of all the work that it took to build them and the work done in them.
I know a guy that takes them down for salvage. He has 5 or so to do this year or next. A big (I think 500+ head) farm in the area owns the land that they are on, wants them off the taxes(like the pennies they'd save would be anything worth while). The salvager has a workshop he uses the materials (for crafts). We got a hold of him when he did the neighbors, any wood he didn't want we'd take for firewood. He just fills his trailer and dumps it off on the yard, otherwise it would be just burned on a pile (and he'd have to take the time and watch it).

He got this wild idea that we should get a convoy of AC tractors and drive them from Charlotte, Michigan 105 miles to LaGrange, Indiana.
