I remember helping them put a brand new metal roof on it as a kid. Now there are 120 junk houses there instead. Their barn was built in the very early 1900's in kent wa. I only have memories now.

    Mid 70s had to sell the milk cows . Then late 80s early 90s tobacco and hogs was done. 4 years ago sold the rest of my cattle. Small farmers can’t make it anymore. I sure miss it but it was hard work.
    What was rough is when a barn had a loft in it and having to hang tobacco.

    When you live it you love it. My kin came from Scotland in 1775 to America and settled in Georgia. Until my children were born, we all came from the South, myself Mississippi. Knowing history is extremely important, not only the real history of the United States but of the world too. If you know other countries history you will understand what is happening in America today for as you say Sir, “History Always Repeats Itself “. America today is repeating the history of a few countries. Russia in 1917, Germany in 1933 and China in the 1940’s to name three. Although America is following the history of these three countries it seems to be following the CCP model the most. Americans that think they want this change should go live in China for a while to see what their future will be. I lived in Urumqi, Xinjiang China for two years. It wasn’t a total shock because I had lived in California before I went to China but even California had far more freedom than China. In China you must try and get a permit to buy a butcher knife, Police are inside your home once a week to check up on you. Armored trucks with machine guns pointed at the people in front of the mall. Armed military police at every corner. Oh and you can’t drink the water. Communism, Socialism is Tyranny, nothing more and the poor people it’s supposed to help wind up dying from starvation if their not executed first. America today is talking about forcing people to wear a badge on their clothing to prove they took the poke, very similar to the Star of David the Jewish people had to wear in Nazi Germany. Our Forefathers and kin that have passed, the Brave Americans that fought and died for Freedom are rolling in their graves today. To see what this once Great Country has become.

    I too “mourn” the loss of a similar lifestyle. What my great grandparents and grandparents and even my parents enjoyed in this once great nation is nearly gone, but I know that I was born for this exact time to face these exact circumstances and make a positive contribution for the right side. Recently it occurred to me that over the years I’ve learned specific things, lessons that impacted me so much and I remember them so clearly that it seems like yesterday that I learned them. All of these seemingly disconnected things have come together to shape my unwavering response to recent world events and let’s just say we are on the same side. It’s beautiful and wonderful that you’ve maintained this barn and land and have these great memories and know what it means to be an American of a certain time, but keep that while acknowledging the value of what you have to offer this nation at this time. Your teaching of our values to the younger generation is priceless. In a way you’ve fathered these boys and opened their eyes and they’ll teach others around them and there will be a ripple effect for the better. All because of you. Take the sadness and grief to the Lord and ask Him to heal you and show you what He wants you to do. You’ll never be happier than knowing the Lord and being in His perfect will for your life. You’ll then be able to look back with fondness without despair, and you’ll be able to look forward with hope because I don’t think we lose this one. It’s no that time yet. Thanks for all you do. Stay strong bc you are needed and have been placed here for such a time as this.

    They want to change our history. But as long as this old barn and items like it stand. History stays the same as it was meant to be. I love this story and your history. Your memory holds the truth and must be passed on. Don't let our U.S. history die. God bless. Semper Fi.

    It's interesting that the two "sinful" moneymaking commodities railed against by preachers and social reformers in US history are whiskey and tobacco.

    We lost our base in the early 80s also lost a lot of family structure along with it but it helped hold the family structure we all worked together as well as neighbor helping neighbor!

    I am an immigrant but a us history buff. Your video brought tears to my eyes to see the changes come so fast and going down a slippery slope faster and faster.

    I just watched your video. We have a tobacco barn on our property that we bought five years ago. It also has the corn crib chicken coop smokehouse. The house was built in 1903. It totally agree with your video. This world needs to get back to the old and simple way of life and they need to understand they way of life used to be. My husband and my parents did hang tobacco, i wasn’t born until ‘70 but i love all the history and just simple living. I remember going to my great grandparents house and enjoying being on their farm. Our country needs to understand what it is doing. GOD BLESS!

    I remember going to see relatives in southern Maryland, piney point as a matter of fact . I was 17. Nothing but tobacco growing at the time. It was amazing.

    Do you still raise and save seed for your tobacco? To keep the seed viable. I have no idea how they save tobacco seed. It would be interesting to know however they did it.

    My dad said he was probably one of the last people to buy a farm and raise a family raising tobacco. God bless you sir, you are not the only one going through these memories. I miss the LIFESTYLE LIKE YOU DON’T KNOW. Again, GOD BLESS YOU!!!!

    Thanks Mr. Z! Thanks for that sober reminder. Even though I’ve never been in your environment, I have much respect for effort, hard work and true purpose. It’s easy to see why those old barns mean so much to you. In the suburban area of St. Louis the half vacant strip malls represent a similar feel. Each empty building and business typically represents many peoples hard work and dreams. I think many of us are wondering if that will ever be back and revived as before. God bless us all.
