I was born in North Platte, Nebraska, and raised on a farm/ranch 3 miles outside of Stockville, the county seat of Frontier County. This is just 65 miles south of North Platte. I don't much get along with those folks anymore, I'm waaayyyyy too much of a non-conformist, but here's a little advice. If you're still back east and you head back that way, stop in and say hello to Les and Jan Hosick at the Dancing Leaf Earth Lodge and Cultural Center:<br /><br />6100 Opal Springs Rd, Wellfleet, NE 69170<br />(308) 963-4233<br /><br />Les is a self-taught archeologist who happens to be rather envied by all of the professional archeologists. He and Jan have an amazing collection of artifacts, including a saber-toothed tiger skeleton. Les uncovered a clay pot filled with native corn and squash seeds several years ago and they maintain a reconstructed earth lodge of the type those native peoples used to live in. They're cool people and Les is an amazing photographer with some photos you have to see to even believe! He has a photo of the interior of the Lodge which is just so crazy mysterious; I bought a copy for my sister for her birthday and she never ever hung it . . . pure ignorance! Anyway, I think you and Les and Jan would probably hit it off splendidly. Most everyone in the community calls Les barefoot boy because he never wears shoes and all of his photos have little pair of bare foot prints in the corner . . .PonderSeekDiscoverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00913503952284529871noreply@blogger.com
