An old Indian hut in the plains of Kansas. I didn't really find out anything about it because apparently the trail wasn't technically open yet so they didn't have any signs posted.

Wow! Thank you all, for your encouraging votes!
About "the old bike": My grandson and I have walked past that bike, 100 times, this fall. It wasn't until we had "a touch" of snow on the ground, that it caught my eye. When my (7 yr. old) grandson saw the pic, he blurted out: "OMG, Grandma! Don't those people know they should call American Pickers?"

It was my fav of the bunch, my being a cycling fan aside. I love photographs that have some 'emotion' or a feeling to them.

Yours had it.

Thank you......
I do wonder, about the "story" of the bike, and how many years it's been leaning there! We've found a lot of photographic treasures, while walking that path. The path itself leads to a little area where the guys sight in their rifles, and shoot targets.

debey that photo was an A+ in any photo class I took. Black and white made it shine bringing out textures and shapes as well as being in sync with the topic of being abandoned. It makes you wonder who rode the bicycle, who learned to ride on it, how many skins and scratches came from riding on it and so on. In other words there is a story line.
