I was traveling through the heartland of America this last week,
I was struck at the feeling of having stepped back into time, as I drove.

Driving out of Lafayette, Ind. I passed this barn, it really hit me visually that just as the downtown areas of these small towns have died, so have the section, 180 acre american farms.

Boswell, Ind.
What more can be said…

Downtown Boswell, Ind. The post office and VFW are the only places open for business in this downtown area.
The thing I kept thinking as I drove was that places like Wal-Mart have changed the fabric of our country, we want more for less, and quality and personal service are forgotten concepts.
And yes, I do remember driving into gas stations where your fuel was pumped for you, and the oil was checked at no charge!
We just dont see sunrises like this in Fl.
