And that's the first time I've seen a log corn crib, but you'll have to fill in the windows.
Actually Tom, that's the Shaw Homestead and the founder of this village. He was a frontiersman/riverboat captain and also that house was a Mississippi River boat stop.
It's being restored by a friend of mine. A couple of years ago, it couldn't be seen from the road that passes just in front it was that over grown. It has a double chimney.

We have log cabins all over this county and mostly still lived in.
