>>What we could not sell at auction we abandoned also.<<
The HOUSE?
Right, yeah, okay....
***The HOUSE?

We did it three times back in the late 1950’s.
I met a man who abandoned his farm back in the 1930’s. He even had a neighbor who wanted him to take over the neighbor’s farm as he also was leaving.
I remember as a child on the high plains when every 640 acres had a house on it. today there may be one house every 6000 acres.
Abandoning homes is nothing new. I see them round here all the time, and I am talking about $100,000 to half a million dollar homes! Empty.
