I don?t mean they?re not Swiss, the variety of architectures is large there, some valleys being immune from influences from others, it could be some place I still need to discover.. But I?d be curious to see one such there, or at least to know where to find one :-) Amities Philippe, now on the lookout for round barns ;-) > Le 17 f?vr. 2018 ? 22:48, Jim Nichols <jhnichols at lighttube.net> a ?crit > : > > When my wife and I arrived in Tennessee in 1953, we drove around exploring > the area.
