welcome to dearfield, colorado

i'd heard of dearfield before, but it popped up on my facebook page again this week and i decided to take a drive out there. after much traffic and overshooting it by about ten miles (missed the signs and wound up on an interstate i didn't want to be on. there were no signs indicating the interchage was coming up), i finally got there.





tromped around inside the chain link fence for these (oogy grasshoppers everywhere and i wore sandals)





i think this was the general store, husband thinks it was the post office



snakes and unsound structures? i can deal with that. hantavirus? no thank you.



and man, oh man, the clouds on the plains
