So what do you think Popup Linkthey are looking Popup Linkat?  This Popup Linkfence and this Popup Linklatch are all that stops people from getting to the Popup LinkLeona.  I posted pics of  Popup Linkher (this shot) in a previous post. Unfortunately the auction is the farm she is on.  The farm is sold.  And subdivided.  I hope the new owners don't take her down.  The farmer that made her for his wife "Leona" has passed away and she has now too.  The family can't keep the farm.  I hope they don't wreck Popup Linkthis view. It is just   Popup Linkbeautiful.  The house, barn and 15 acres are up for sale together.  The rest is being sold in 10 to 15 acre lots.  Let's just hope  Popup Linkshe remains.

  • Great shots Penny. And a sad story--I think you can probably kiss that great view good-bye. And love the B&W--sorry Bruce.

    Great shots, Penny! This view is my favorite also. I can't imagine the new owners tearing it down but you never know. At least, you'll always be able to see it!

  • Sad story, It would be a shame if someone would tear down that lovely bridge. Maybe someone with a heart and an eye for beauty will buy it. Great pictures.
