Kansas countryside

Brian took the camera with him last time he went hunting, and snapped some pics while he was moving from spot to spot. It is interesting to me how dry, brown, western Kansas has become some beautiful to me. Definately it's own unique beauty.

Here are some of my favorites from the photos he shot.



In the middle of this pasture there is this huge, random rock wall. There isn't any other indication of what the wall may have been there for, but it is huge as you can see in the picture below. 




He went hunting on what is called "WIA" land, which is essentially private land that for tax reasons, conservation reasons, etc. is kind of leased to the state. The owner gets tax breaks for not farming or grazing the land for a specified number of years, and the hunters get to use it for hunting.



So that means he looks across the road and there are cows grazing, like here between the trees.

Because this is Kansas :)
