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.

Our local Habitat For Humanity had a fundraising event last Saturday evening involving a dinner and a fashion show with the fashions made from house construction materials. This outfit was made of HVAC duct work, tin flashing, pop rivets, EVA foam, 16 gauge steel wire, and shingles. The wire was used to make chainmail, and the shingles were used to make his belt to protect him from a dragon's fiery breath. This armor took six months to construct. It used 250 pop rivets.
