The photos on Jan's website show the beauty of it on the day it was first revealed.<br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed it, Ruth.<br /><br />Steve - I understand from Jan that this barn was pretty run down at one time. I love this beautifully restored version of it.<br /><br />Thanks, George.<br /><br />Margaret, thank you.<br /><br />Petra - I totally agree. I couldn't see the details of the mural from the highway, but I loved it when I enlarged the photo on the computer. Then, when Jan filled in the history of it a little bit, my appreciation for it grew.<br /><br />Thanks, Betsy. Those water crossings seem to get more wobbly the older the hiker gets. :)<br /><br /><br />Tex - I loved that aspect of it, too.<br /><br />Linda at To Behold The Beautyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07419060763634934217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-17006271590731978182016-05-02T11:08:46.635-04:002016-05-02T11:08:46.635-04:00Hi, What a beautiful barn and mural.

As for the eagle question, many Iowa counties have them nesting. There are six known nests in my county. I can stand across the river from this nest and observe them.I know they have gotten alarmed at canoeists and really gave them a hard time. It'snot the bird I would want mad at me, their grace and beauty is amazing.Out on the prairiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09548162534362532705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-72910016069260927322016-04-30T08:35:03.472-04:002016-04-30T08:35:03.472-04:00i love that the barn itself is featured in the mur...i love that the barn itself is featured in the mural it holds. :)TexWisGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13641962051044162710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-80020630548960191272016-04-29T22:41:53.655-04:002016-04-29T22:41:53.655-04:00That is fascinating.That is fascinating.Ruth Hieberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11260132564992492524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031302234429148594.post-87652629662788883892016-04-29T22:09:23.295-04:002016-04-29T22:09:23.295-04:00Linda, that is a beautiful mural and I love the na...Linda, that is a beautiful mural and I love the name of it, too!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12692170857496442623noreply@blogger.com
