Cool Old Lease Houses

[asu-indian]

I can't imagine living in the houses on properties I've hunted over the years. This is an old one room house that has been twisted by the Kansas winds. It had to be rough with no internet.

Y'all post up some.

Was just talking with my grandad today about this. Said they didn’t know any better back then. I wish I had taken pictures of the old homesteads where I’ve hunted. This should be a cool thread.

We stayed in one in Bronte on a lease we were on that you could feel the wind blow through like nothing was there. It had a old wood burning stove, but if it was real cold, it couldn’t keep up. It was a cool place until the scorpions started dropping from the rafters. Haha

Stayed in one in NW Oklahoma one year that the only way the wall stayed upright was because all the termites were holding hands.

When I was going to Kansas we stayed in a farmhouse that was built around 1900 I think. It was nice but it was drafty and cold

Had to turn the well pump on to fill the cistern under part of the house for water. No idea what it taste like because we always drank bottled water, well water was for showers and toilets

I hunted a property in Colorado last season that had the old family homestead cabin still on it from the late 1800’s. It snowed on the 4th day of my hunt and I took this photo. Looks like something from Thomas Kinkade

This is the old house and pole barn on my place. My grandfather lived here as a kid with his uncle. It’s not there anymore but there use to be an only wagon road that went up by the house.

In 1987 we stayed in an old dog run style house outside Huntsville, TX which was on the lease. One side was in bad shape and we found old newspapers they used to insulate the walls with. An older gentleman showed/walked up one day. Retired professor at the college in town. Said he was born in that house and told us the story about it. Showed us underneath where the handhewn cedar beams were that came off the property. Wish I had pictures of it

That's really cool to get that history first hand.

This one is on our lease in young county.

That is a really cool pic Luis.

These kind of structures amaze me....especially the older I get. The history lessons and stories those walls could tell??? A rougher, harder lifestyle that gets further and further away from us with time. Something the younger generation will never know. A hardship only us old f**** can relate to. Lol
