Abandoned farm house- Southern Minnesota

I have driven past this house on my way home from school for several years, I finally remembered my camera and had some time to stop and check it out. The area is subjected to floods constantly since its at the bottom of a large valley, I can't for the life of me figure out why someone would build a house here. It's quite obvious why the place was finally abandoned.

The barn seems to be in great shape, except for the roof.

There are a lot of holes that are easily seen from the inside.

The interior has been trashed, I hate seeing this.

The place has been flooded at least a few times, it's very close to a major river.

The whole basement is coated in rust.

Surprisingly, this is the backside of the house. I was able to park my truck out of site of the road.

Nice Shots Iamstu,

That Barn looks interesting with all the holes in the roof.
I definitely stop to explore old farm houses when traveling the rural highways.
I thought that place looked familiar.

The last picture was taken from the upper windows seen in the second to last picture, and belive me I was treading lightly. Thanks West, but I'm still working on the full member bit, has someone else been there and included it in the DB then?
