The barn.

The big red barn. Not the best day to take pictures they ended up kind of dark and you can't see the difference between what has been painted and what hasn't.
On this angle you can see the dormers. The vents way on top, Dwight is hoping to get a cherry picker from someone in town to paint them.



On this one you can see the silo which some one started to paint maybe 10 years ago and has never gotten finished. We are hoping to spray this.


We found an old picture and a photograph of the old barn. The picture was drawn by Ester Frelich, a deaf woman that went to school there. As did all of her 10 children. One being the movie star Phyllis Frelich. She and one of her other daughters have been checking up on our progress. We are going with her suggestion to add more white and return it to it's glory. You can see on the four windows, that the ones on the left looks so much brighter. The building is, I think 100 years old or at least close to it. When the school was self efficient. They had crops and a large garden, cows, horses, chickens, pigs and just about anything else that you would find on a farm.
