I was driving out to Brentwood California to teach a social media class, and saw this as I was driving... So I grabbed my camera and snapped a quick picture.

Love it! (I tried to post yesteray, but user-error) LOL!

Flag

The Barn is located in Vasco Road (between Livermore and Brentwood). When you are headed to Brentwood, it is on the left hand side. It seems that flags are taken town everwhere on state roads, so this is on private property, so we get to see it!

Great job, to whomever is teh owner and painted it!

Great photo, thanks for sharing! I have a quick question for you, not sure if this is appropriate or not though. You posted a blog about importing your AR blog to facebook. I went into my profile and followed the steps you gave and it seemed to work. Problem is, it's not updating with my new blogs. Did I do something wrong?

@Erika - You are welcome! (re: import... Usually once every few days it will mass dump them into FB. Give it a few days, and you will see it dump it into FB. It doesn't seem to do it immediatly as I would hope, but it will dump it in... In fact, I havn't seen it dump mine in, in a few days either... Wonder if there is an internal FB issue.... hmmmm....)

Chris, I was looking at the shot and trying to figure out what it was. A barn did not cross my mind but it is a very cool barn!
