38yrs ago we took a trip to see my wifes grandma in the nursing home. Grandpa had passed on several years before. Both had farmed 400a of prime Kansas bottom land that was homestead by Great Pa & Ma. All had gone thru the depression and didn't believe in Banks and trusted the house walls more than the bank.
We were advised to take anything we wanted from the homestead as Grandma was in terrible shape and the family was going to sell the farm to the neighbor for $$100a when she died. That just didn't set right with either of us as it was still Grandma's and she couldn't give it away too us because of her health.
There was 3 old steam tractors, several horse drawn wagons and field equipment and 5 sets of brand new harness hanging in the barn along with several older sets.
Now that's just what I remember from 38yrs ago and it being the first time I had ever been to the farm.
The neighbor bull dozed the house and barn into a on site pit when he bought the place looking for the bank rolls.
