Out chasing caches on a winter Sunday
Between Joppa & Shady Grove happened to stray
And what to our wondering eyes should appear?
But this crazy tower with bronze statue deer!

Octagonal Castle shaped 'Folly' out in the countryside in Eastern Burnet County (on "Shady Grove Rd" CO Rd 200).

Nearby driveway had sign reading: Atchkin (sp) Manor: "Our Hearts' Desire."
