It seems this was a hard to figure item! <br />As to where this is, it is in Alton, Iowa. Alton is a small town in Northwest, Iowa. <br />I'll try to get back there again and shoot some close-ups if anyone is interested from all sides. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Next time by, I'm gonna look at that thing. Must have been having Ice Cream withdrawls(Le Mars/ Blue Bunny central) last time I went by.[:D][:D][:D] <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Mudchicken, When you come thorugh Alton from the South, as you are crossing the Floyd River bridge on the North end of Alton, Look west about 1/5 mile. The tower is pretty obscured by trees but you should see it on the south bank of the river. If you have time, you can turn one block further south of the elevator. If you find an old Union Pacific depot (now used to store fertilizer) you'll be real close. Then this tower is only one block northeast of that point. Email me if you see it! <br /> <br />Muddy Creek, great satellite phot, That's the town!
