Built in 1868 and serving students until 1952, the McGee school is one of but a few surviving brick one-room schoolhouses in the state of Iowa.
Restoration began in 2000 and is nicely furnished with many period pieces inside.
It was named after the McGee family that donated the land and it replaced a wooden building that burned down near Coffins Creek. The McGee's ten children were the majority of students in the early years and is officially known as Coffins Grove District #1.
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
Historic Pine Hall Mansion, built in 1865, was the original mansion for the land that is now Otis Park Golf Course.

I shot my friends band the other day for their new myspace design (which I am also doing) to show off some of the new music they'll have up soon. We found this nice spot to shoot at, which was quite a hike, and got going. I was really happy with the way everything turned out, and I'm excited to work with them again in the future.
