Beach & Barn means a lot of different things to us.  At the top of the list is the shared simplicity of coastal life and small town life.  Big cities are great for everyone else, but for us, we need to be within a stone’s throw of a large body of highly salty water, or a tiny freshwater pond in a podunk, nothin’ town to get that feeling we’re after.  Either will do just fine, thank you very much.
