Re: [RC] Spam:****, RE: [RC] FW: [RC] Going back in time... - Ranelle Rubin

Well said Barbara..!

One only has to ride through Deadwood on the Tevis trail and pause at the cemetery to see what was once a bustling mining town is now but a water stop for thirsty horses! Oh, and don't forget the restless and adventurous riders!

It is so much easier to tear down history in the west, because we built out of our primary available material, lumber. The west suffered much destruction in the form of burned down buildings (think kerosene lanterns and wood stoves), whereas, in the east, as in Europe, many buildings were built of stone and still exist. Western mentality is somewhat different, too. I have noticed it compared to experiences of traveling in Europe and our few times in the east USA. My assessment: westerners were the adventurous, restless ones who left families and familiar homes to test the unknown wilderness. Some of that mentality still exists...It's a little hard to explain, but that's my assessment...in a short version.

I have a friend who grew up in England.  She is amazed by the way we tear
down historic structures here in the west.
