there are no x-wing fighters, lightsabers or heavy breathing dark masters of the jedi in curtis, nebraska (sigh) BUT yesterday, zeke & i found something that resembled R2D2. it was a well pump geocache that marked a historical site: the first irrigation well drilled in frontier county. back in 1946 they couldn’t go deeper than 80 feet due to the sandstone. the current well goes 180 feet. i took a little plastic pterodactyl, left a banjo string, and signed the log.
BEEP GOES THE VIDEO

that’s a pretty good find. as big as it appaers, probably not too hard. good pictures. have they spotted aliens around there?
no aliens. just goofy tourists.
resemblance is remarkable…
Fun post! Glad you stopped by to enjoy the countryside. We placed these for a big family reunion several years ago and it’s been a great way to share some history and invite folks out to the farm.
