Yeah, an old silo like that might add a TINY bit on your taxes around here but if you like the looks what the he!! does $10-20 a year matter?

I can go you one better. I picked up an acreage a few years back that has an old ratty house sitting on 2.5 acres sitting right in the middle of my road frontage. Young couple living in it. About 1000 sf and they have 7 kids. House had a large, very nice cement silo next to a slab which had once been a dairy barn. Apparently, their dream was to buy the acreage but never gonna be able to afford it and never made an offer, but they treated it like it was theirs...hunting, cutting wood, dumping trash in the back, riding motorcycles. So along comes me buys the property. Weeks go by and they just stare at me while I clean up what turns out to be their trash. So over I go to introduce myself. Not friendly, don't want to know me. Seems odd since I am their only contiguous neighbor. After a bit they revert to old ways. Poaching, stealing wood, trespassing. I ask nicely can it stop, worried about liability etc. They were pretty clear, going to do whatever they want when I am not around. BUT, they put the place up for sale, never asked would I be interested. So I went over to see them, said I would be writing an offer, but that the price was a bit high because the house is really bad. Told him I really wanted it for the silo and barn foundation. Along comes PITA yuppie fools and gives him full price. Want to remodel it and sit and enjoy "THEIR" view of my property. The last thing the former owner did was to take a sledge hammer to the silo. Did it without permission of the buyer after the contracts were signed. Kind of a parting shot. There was no other reason to do it.

Today's Featured Article - Identifying Tractor Smells - by Curtis Von Fange. We are continuing our series on learning to talk the language of our tractor. Since we can’t actually talk to our tractors, though some of the older sect of farmers might disagree, we use our five physical senses to observe and construe what our iron age friends are trying to tell us. We have already talked about some of the colors the unit might leave as clues to its well-being. Now we are going to use our noses to diagnose particular smells. ELECTRICAL SMELLS ... [Read Article]
