As a bonus - silo turned into living quarters.
The barn is the house and the silo bathroom I believe.

Can I have a motorcycle when I get old enough?
If you take care of it.
What do you have to do?
Lot’s of things. You’ve been watching me.
Will you show me all of them?
Sure.
Is it hard?
Not if you have the right attitudes. It’s having the right attitudes that’s hard.

I just had an inspiration:

Big, lighted Honda sign. Like car dealership or small engine repair or even an MC store but what counts is glowing Honda.

Everyone must be asleep so I'll sneak in and grab this one. :)  Colors have been muted here in the metro from the drought and the leaves are falling early. Birch tree in the top photo and a Maple in the second photo.  40 degrees....a bit chilly. :'(

Your bike and an Art Deco building or structure.  Think 1930's big or small, could be a bridge, vintage skyscraper,  or an old Streamliner (hard to find).

I would have gotten the sign...there's a car dealer 3 miles away that I could get a pic with three huge signs in one shot, and the motorcycle dealer with one huge sign out front. Unfortunately, my headers are out getting ceramic coated, so I can't ride right now. :(

Nah, would've done it, but I've been working 5 am to 7 pm for the last two months, and my cameras aren't too good at taking pictures in the dark.  :P

An art deco greenhouse. The Jewel Box in Forest Park St. louis, MO.
Built in 1936 for $125k and restored a few years back fof $2.5M. Inflation.
Second pick is the front. Cop wouldn't let my stop out front so my pic was from the back.
