Once you find this cache, you may collect your limited edition coin at the Aurora History Museum (15051 E Alameda Pkwy) front desk. You may collect your coin Tues through Fri between 9 am and noon or between 1 and 3:45 pm. Weekend hours to receive your coin are 11am to 3:45.  Due to Covid restrictions, you must make an online appointment to see museum exhibits.  This is the fourth cache for historic buildings in Aurora.  Find Bicentennial Art Center (GC 7N26G), Hornbein Building (GC8429B) and Centennial House (GC7J22A) for other coins.  The city has granted permission to place this cache.  Built in 1902, the DeLaney Round Barn is one of the few remaining round barns in Colorado.  It is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  The building was originally built as a grain silo (note the vertically oriented window on the northeast side) but was converted into a two-story dairy barn around 1912.  The barn's round construction demonstrates a very high level of craftsmanship.

Please don't help create a "path" to the cache.  And, deep snow won't help you find it!

Thanks to poolsharkycat and imusttravel2000 for help in placing this cache.

Now that is a cool idea for a container! Speaking of cool, that’s what today is because of the wind. TFTC!

I had just been to the farm a week or so ago to do the AL but stopped to get this one and then on to Aurora History Museum for the coin. Bhob had beat me there so I got coin #2 (I now have #1, #1, #12 and #2). Once we move I'll still have to travel back to get the rest of the set! TFTC!

Out and about on a pleasant early spring day, enjoying the predicted record-setting temperatures - this was the last of seven geocaches that I found along the way. TN-LN-SL. Thanks !
