| | | Exploring has been a bit of drug for me this week and I've been out a lot. I decided to go outside the city again and see what I could find that's off the beaten path. What I can only describe as a mid-life crisis, has prompted me to leave my career and make some big changes. Long story short...I have a couple more weeks with a lot of free time. I've hit up quite a few locations with various success. Some I couldn't get into. I marked a lot of spots for the spring when they will be easier to access. It's been cool to get outside of my usual places and see parts of the area I've never seen. I also saw a lot of deer, a couple of coyotes and an owl. I don't think I've ever seen an owl in the wild before. I'll add to this thread through the weekend and share some pics of all the weird and randomness this area has. One of the stops yesterday was an old church built by German settlers here in approximately 1910. It remained in use until the late 80's but now sits alone and forgotten on a remote backroad. I couldn't help but wonder where the congregation came from as there wasn't much around this building and it was a bit of a challenge to find. The building, itself, was essentially gutted. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

| | | Another stop was a very old homestead. There are literally dozens of these around and this one was relatively close to the road which made walking in doable. The house was made of wood and mud and had a water pump outside underneath the windmill looking thing. There were a few outbuildings and a very old piece of farm equipment. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. I'm not sure why some of these pics flip on upload. #7&8 are flipped. Any way to fix that? Prevent it?
