- Darrell, Guy and Boyd Barnes, standing at the doorway of the large cabin at Four Mile (four miles up Eby Creek, toward Castle). The smaller cabin ..."was built from aspen wood logs and was really small. The roof on this cabin was made of dirt and the family garden was grown on the roof of the little cabin. Phyllis Barnes [Johnson] was born in this cabin one year pretty close to Christmas. ... Guy Barnes cleared more land and built a much larger log cabin across the spring from the little cabin. Monica was so happy to be able to hang her laundry in the upstairs of the big cabin during the Winter." -- Homestead Days in Colorado, p.2
