Our iconic barn may have been wiped out by a tornado, but good times remain a constant at Marmac Farm.

It’s been a desk-bound week of writing and editing for me, but I took a break to create — and now share — a cutout illustration of the farmhouse at Marmac. A vacant chicken coop sits in the foreground.

Weekends at my family’s farm often involve lingering in the kitchen late into the morning with a cup of coffee, which is what I was doing when I took this photo to test the macro-bility of my Canon 60mm lens.
