September 5th: We got a little reprieve on our Iowa blues. After patching the Bob flat, we began our exit route out of Rolfe when looking to my right I spied with my little eye a huge rocking horse. We had to investigate, so after dismounting, we walked over to it. There we met Dan, who along with his brother, Reg, are the founders and creators of Bud Barn. What is Bud Barn? Just one of the craziest guy handouts/Budweiser homages you'll find anywhere in the Union. Besides the horse, which is the second largest in the world and the largest working one, the property is adorned with several mammoth sculptures and structures, all built by Dan and his brother. Really amazing stuff.
