    It is 100' from my house, in the middle of nowhere northern Iowa, If anyone is traveling up I35 let me know and stop by.  We live pretty close to the Diamond Joe casino by the Iowa/Minnesota border.  (I used to live in Southwest WI)  Probably no driveway, the house has a 2 car attached garage so that will be for the daily drivers.  There is somewhat of an old gravel driveway under the grass leading to the overhead door so the yard is pretty firm.

      Got room for me to park the semi? Haha but really an old barn is gonna make a awesome man cave! My grandparents have a friend that converted the hay loft on his hobby farm into a full size bar with pool tables and slots and even a coin operated mini marry-go-round.

        I am right on the blacktop, you wouldn't make it in the driveway with a trailer but just the truck would be no problem.  There is truck parking at the welcome to Iowa rest area one mile away.  Do you come by this way much?  Let me know if you are, you should stop in for sure if I am home.

        The upstairs will eventually be finished out like a studio apartment most likely.  

        I am most excited to observe the Amish tools, notably the Dewalt chop saw with a 2 stroke gas engine instead of electric.

              Love the new shop!

              That's exactly what I'm looking for; a country house with an old barn to turn into a shop/workspace. Too bad the options in Dane Co are hella limited..
