They were at least two and a half feet tall.

I went to see what [...] My furnace has been acting up for the last couple of weeks. At first I noticed that it didn’t come on when it was supposed to. I went down and did a few things that I know how to do and got it working. A few days later the same thing happened. I was [...] This barn sits on some property my parents owned on highway 67 in southeastern Missouri from about 1970 until 1990. Our family built this barn in the early 1970s.
