Another, "funny you mention that". The old farmstead at the end of what was a dirt road, across the then swamp, now pond/small lake, from us was a typical small family farm with the farm house, huge hay barn, bank barn with the ramp on one side and stanchion stall dairy below and out on grade beyond the barn. There were all kinds of out buildings, and what you said brings back old memories. There were 2 distinct buildings with projecting walls, not square enough to be diamonds, walls longer than the roof, each distant from each other, away from the rest of the farm, in the middle of a field. Obviously corn cribs, even had the diamond shaped portal window in the front of each. They were the last of the buildings that stood, wish I had photos of the whole farm, these 2 little buildings I never knew what they were for, until years later. Darned kids burned the house, then the barn later, not sure about the other out buildings. I found the place on an old aerial photo of this area taken in 1952, and there they were besides the rest of the farm, 2 wooden corn crib buildings. This old place was cool, back when rural meant rural, the road was dirt and the telephone poles had glass insulators, going into the 80's was a forgotten little place amongst what was changing, time kind of forgot about this place.
