Blue Ridge Country November/December 2023 - 42

The Maple Leaf Barn is located at
the Seven Islands State Birding
Park in Kodak, Tennessee, east of
Knoxville along the French Broad
River. The park was created
for birdwatching and it has a
beautiful wildlife refuge and
several hiking trails with views
of the Great Smoky Mountains.
Other activities at the park
include kayaking, canoeing, biking
and fishing.
From the photographer: " The
barn was originally built and
owned by the Creswell Family
who lived on the property. They
operated a small farm and sanddredging
operation on the river.
The quilt pattern would have
been added later when the park
was established. "

The Logan Brothers Mural
painted on the side of the Classic
Cleaning and More store at 202
Haywood in West Asheville,
North Carolina. The mural,
which represents the original
businesses at that location, was
commissioned by the owners in
2019. It was painted by muralist
Scott Allred of Brushcan Custom
Murals and Hand Painted signs.
From the artist, Scott Allred:
" That mural has been referred to
as the 202 Haywood Mural and
the Sepia Tone Mural, but I like to
call it " The mural of the building
on the building " because that's
literally what it is. It combines
two eras. Logan Bros Hauling had
a fleet of trucks in the '20s and
'30s, hauling coal and other heavy
things. Then in the late '40s and
early '50s, Allied Tire moved in and
opened a service station. I painted
the mural in June of 2019. "
