Tower
A wooden observation tower standing in a grove of trees. At the base is a stairway leading to a deck with a low railing. A tall flag pole rises above the deck at the top, and is supported by horizontal beams attached to the tower's uprights. A caption written below the photograph states: "On top of his hill George Brumder built a high tower in a cluster of pines affording a view of six lakes and miles of country." |
