Abandoned House 1

This past week we toured through some small towns south and east of McCook, Nebraska. These towns are dying because they have lost the ability to support people. School consolidation removed the schools, the railroad closed the line, main street businesses closed, and people moved away unable to sell their houses. Those who remain are unable to leave, and are often elderly.
