The village of Holcomb stands on the high wheat plains of western Kansas, its a lonesome area that other Kansans call "out there". This I where we call home. Its not a big city but just a small place that not many people know about. Its about seventy miles east of the Colorado border, the countryside, with its hard blue skies and desert-clear air. The land is flat, and the views are awsomely extensive; horses, and herds of cattle. After rain, or when snowfalls thaw, the streets, unnamed, shaded, unpaved, turn from the thickest dust into the driest mud. There is a large building here in town, behind the dust on the windows say Holcomb Bank, that closed in 1933. There isn't much here in Holcomb, but we love it and our farm.
