My Hometown.

How many were in your High School class?
I would think most of the kids were from the surrounding area?

How far do you have to go to a town where there are physicians, dentist, etc.?

Does daylight occur naturally in the town or does it have to be piped in? :lol:
(I know, I know-but I just couldn't resist.) :oops:
 
What is that great big tall building to the right? Is that a granery? Looks like a nice little town. I love a small town. Looks real pretty there.

Well, McCord just had a K-8 school, at the time. There hasn't been any school there for at least 15 years. We finished High School in a nearby town. There was 14 of us that graduated then. Now a lot of the classes don't even have 10 kids and it is drawing in from a much bigger area. The school my kids go to has about 100 kids. The next nearest schools run in that 50-75 kids. That is K-12.

We actually have a health clinic (3 times a week I think) that is about 15 minutes away (we measure everything in how long it takes to get there, not so much by distance ;-)) But our nearest centers that have a Hospital, full time Dr's office and dentist are an hour, and it is 2-3 to the big Hospitals that can take care of most everything. If it is something serious they will stabilize you and then send you on.

We do actually have daylight here, sometimes in the winter you wonder though, the sun is only in the sky for about 9 hours in the heart of winter. Piped in sun would be nice about then :banana:
 
Katherine, it is the Elevator. Where grain was assembled and put onto trains to transport out. My Dad and Uncle now own it, the railway has been gone for about 20 years. It is used for grain storage now, and grain cleaning and weighing stuff (mostly grain, and sometimes hay bales)
 
Thanks for sharing all this. It's pretty neat to see other parts of the country, not just the pastures and barns. I wouldn't begin to know where to find a picture like that of the town where we are.
