In 1980, Mr. Thagard Kirkpatrick (Texas A&M Class of 24) painted his barn Maroon to express his love for his Alma Mater. The barn was located between Waco and College Station, Texas. Over time, this barn has become a landmark that most Aggies are familiar with as they drive down from North Texas to Aggieland. In 2006, the barn was scheduled for demolition due to a highway expansion project. Joe Swinnea (Texas A&M Class of 85) purchased the barn from the Kilpatrick family and moved it to their property to continue the legacy of the Aggie Barn. Today, the Swinneas maintain the barn in order to preserve the legacy of Mr. Kilpatrick and bring joy to other Aggies.

By David Morefield I started photography for a couple of reason, the main reason was for the pure enjoyment of creating something beautiful. In my past, I have seen some of the greatest horrors known to man, so finding other images to place into my head has been therapeutic. I call it "Image Replacement Therapy." Over time, I had some people ask about buying prints, so I started posting prints for sale and this is how Fluffyshotme Photography was born. I prefer to go out and capture whatever strikes me in the moment and if others like it, then great. My photography is more for me to appreciate, but if others can get enjoyment out of my work, then that brings me a sense of fulfillment. I am interested in travelling the world....
