Old Barns by Bryce Canyon

I found these two barns when we went to Bryce Canyon a few weeks ago. The coordinates are for Google maps. This barn is close to a very small town called Cannonville. We stayed in Cannonville at the Grand Staircase Inn the first night of our trip. The hotel was pretty good for the price, and the staff were friendly. Way cheaper than staying at Bryce Canyon for the same type of lodging.
After driving 4 hours from our home, we got to Bryce Canyon at near sunset. After going to a few overlook places, we decided to go get something to eat. Rubie's Inn is right there at the park and I know they have a buffet, so we went to eat, but the price was going to be over $70 for us. I thought that we would just drive the 20 min. to Cannonville where the hotel was and choose a place to get something to eat there. So we drove to the hotel. When we got there the hotel looked to be the only business in town. There weren't any restaurants or stores or anything of the sort. So we drove back towards Bryce. On the way to the hotel from Bryce we passed through another little town called Tropic which had a few restaurants. So we stopped there, but the food was even more expensive. So we drove all the way back to Rubie's Inn and ate there. It was good food, especially the deserts.

I was just off the road zoomed in to 228mm with the 300mm lens, and this little house is still tiny. Looking at the satellite view on Google maps, this house looks like it is a mile from the road as the crow flies.
