The "Barn Show" playing on the radio. We still have the barn, just not in as good a shape anymore, and all that's living in it is one horse and some barn cats.
We had horses, chickens and a cow. Cows give off a lot more heat and humidity than do horses, so in the winter we always added a bit more hay to the sides to help keep it warmer. The cats learned to bunk in the horses' hay feeders. But yes, it was still humid!
