For all the pics in the next two posts it may help to click on them to see them in full size. I wish I knew how to get blogger to post larger pictures within the blog.

In this picture (from right to left) is the cob house, the house I grew up in, and grain bin. The cob house is where my grandparents stored corn cobs they harvested in the fall. They burned them in the winter to stay warm.

The enormous cylindrical building stores corn. The odd looking thing sticking out of it is a fan. When the corn is harvested it is too wet. The fans dry the corn to keep it from developing mold.

This picture is taken from pretty much the center of the picture above, looking back. It is just a fantastic late afternoon view.
