Awesome trip back in time! As always thanks for bringing us along! Its our love of history and all things old that bonds us to our love of old cars and trucks! Wish those old homesteads could talk, oh the stories we could enjoy! It makes you wonder of course... what happened to those families? If we could only go back in time! God bless!
Yes you Kansans do feed the country, and the world! Thank you all!!! Yes we’re very dry in the south as well. Thanks for taking us along on your expedition. Nice to see you doing things that are good distractions also.
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I like exploring old places like that. I usually try to imagine what the place looked like way back when, what the people were doing, how they lived, etc. I'm sure the overwhelming majority of folks today don't realize just how many people had travelled, in the same spot they're travelling in, over the past several thousand years. I hate seeing the old stuff go away but it leads to a memorable moment when you can get with some friends & play "Remember when ..." The first place you visited would make for a good hollywood movie scene. I think the place where you showed the bark of the cottonwoods would have been a nice gathering place. Sort of like an oasis in a desert. I know of places around my stomping grounds that have gone by the wayside, & if you are new to the area, you would never know that there use to be something there. With modern equipment an entire small community could be demolished, plowed under, & made to look like nothing ever happened there, within a matter of weeks or months. So sad. Thanks again & happy hunting.
Re: all the broken bottles - Cowboys, ranch hands, even early farmers in KS were 'famous' for using their empty bottles for target pratice, teaching new shooters, and for shooting contests of all types, between a pair of more men, it would often determine who bought the other(s) a beer at days end, or weekend.

This kind of place would be my dream place for random free parts

150 yrs from now, many of our cities will look similar... (San Francisco and Los Angeles, aren't far off)... 🤣🤣🤣
Is that rattlesnake country?
