Abandoned Barn

Have you ever been in a 100 year old abandoned barn? I have.We parked in front of an abandoned barn Jesse and I rast(raced) to the front door waiting for Dad.ceaferle (carefully)we opened the big sliding door we walked inside.It was cold and dark as we entered the bilding. It smelt of an wooling shed it realy smelt of sheep.As we walked arond we fond some mishens.the mishens were yoused for shearing the sheep.As we looked aroned we fond some old wool and when I toched it it felt soft.When we poshed on a door it creed(creaked) open .I look in the litte room the floor was like a cadel(cattle) stop that had a hole in it.It was not dark because there was no roof and the sun was shining in. The barn was in good order because the heritage people have been looking after it. We saw another door  we opend the door there was old  timber and a bone.The bone was shaped like a leg bone I think it belogd(belonged) to a sheep. I jumped over a litte fens and went done(down) the sheep run when I squeezed done it it got smaller and smaller.When I squeezed to the end dad said “time to go” I jumped out.Before long dad saw some sheds ofer(over) in the other padick.We jumped the fens and ran to have a look.When we reched  shed we saw some doors behind the doors were two old toilets.They had wooden sets that were molde but they looked like they were new.Then it was reale time to go because we had to go to our next desternashon and have lunch at a river.It was fun exploring the abandoned barn.
