A Weekend in The Great Plains

A Weekend in the Great Plains

The subtle beauty of of midwest is carved by geology and polished by the elements.

I never tire of the silence and rawness it offers.

Few really ever see it.

The Silence of Silos

Often the tallest structures in most midwestern towns. I can’t image what they cost to build.

I stopped to take a few photos of this loading dock in the morning light. The owner of the property stopped to ask what I was up do. 5 minutes later he offered to sell it, all 160,000 sq./ft. to me for $65,000.
