Description
This is the old Burnett School House, nestled into the woods east of Ashland, almost to Callaway County. The remnants of an old pair of teeter totters are left behind the school, much worse for the wear. Spring wildflowers are blooming all around, and even not-so-wildflowers, like the purple iris blooming in front of the schoolhouse. Definitely off the beaten path...the area has a feel of being somewhere that time almost forgot.
I think I read that there are plans to move this schoolhouse north to the Boone County Historical Society, where they have a collection of other houses and buildings, preserved as symbols of Boone County's past.

Thank you, Wayne! I thought about doing this in black and white to give it a timeless feel, but everything was so lush and green that I just couldn't bring myself to lose that. ;-)
