[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 4180088, member: 7900"] This image is of a feature in the Minidoka National Historical Site. That site is located east of a community named Jerome, Idaho, which is kind of in the area of Twin Falls, ID. Minidoka is one of the Japanese Interment Camps during World War II, and when all the people were allowed to leave, the government sold most of the buildings to locals. They have now purchased back a few of the structures in which the people lived. I think this structure was a "waiting room" used when visitors came to the camp to visit family and friends who lived in the camp.

Surprisingly, I grew up within about a 100 miles of one of the camps, which is in southeastern Colorado near the town of Granada.
