Guess How Many Barns! And Win!

As I mentioned in my previous post (click here), I am just tallying up the final number of barns I have found in my survey. Rather than just boringly telling you, I want you to guess! Email me your guess to k.catherwood@mun.ca. The guess closest to the actual number will win a homemade gift basket from yours truly. So put your guessing hat on!

Contest Rules:
1. Email guess to k.catherwood@mun.ca by December 15, 2013.
2. The guess closest to the actual number will win a gift basket of homemade goodies (if you live within a reasonable and deliverable distance). If the winner hails from further away, you'll get a gift certificate from Better World Books.
3. Limit of one guess per person.

Hints:
- This number will be the total number of barns in both the R.Ms of Laurier and the Gap. 
- This number will include barns built before approximately 1960 (no rigid-frame buildings, steel buildings, cattle sheds or calving sheds will be included in this number).
- This number will include barns of all different roof types, not just the common "hip-roof" barn.

Now you know there's at least one barn in the area. This is one of the biggest and best preserved in the region and is located west of Radville.
