Tower of Bahhbel: Illinois Farmer Lovingly Makes Castle for His Goats



There were seven wonders of the ancient world, all but one destroyed. There are three goat towers in the modern world and all of them still stand.

In the words of Shelley's Ozymandias: "Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"*

More simply: Goat towers kick ass over ancient wonders.

Now, it must be said that the most kick-assingest goat tower is the one at the Fairview Wine and Cheese Estate in Paarl, South Africa, because it was the first goat tower ever constructed, back in 1981, and because it is on a wine and cheese estate.

But the goat tower with the most kick-assingest name is the Tower of Baaa, in Findlay, Illinois, a scant 131 miles and 2 hours and 41 minutes from St. Louis, Missouri, via Interstate 70. LINK
