Grain elevator in West Liberty. The next few days will be spent in this interesting Iowa community.
Closed Amber Mutual Creamery. Dairy cows are few and far between in this part of Iowa. Corn and beans along with beef cattle, hogs and chickens are the mainstays of local farming.
Glen Miller Park. Fall-the season between summer and winter-in Indiana. I will be away from a computer until the end of next week. Check back again on a week from Friday.
Mail-Pouch and an old Coke cooler. Once again, the original wall painting has been covered by a "new" Mail-Pouch (real?) painting.

The next few days will be spent in Redkey, Indiana. A forgotten community that seems to be in the process of changing from the usual small town retail stores to a collection of coffee shops, bed and breakfast, and art galleries.
Thomas and Dixie Batt owners of the Country Gentleman. For an excellent selection of clothing check out their store in Winchester, Indiana.
