Unlike the others in the series, this town at least seems to have a little bit of character.

As opposed to this town.

looking at the most boring town series i have noticed that Kansas seems to claim most of the top 10 - of this they should be proud - something to put on the "welcome to kansas" sign when you cross the border

Protect your so called "boring towns"...progress is ruining what peace may still exists. Hope that it doesn't reach you... at all or you can kiss you boredom goodbye and say hello to the perils of a growing society...

I have traveled to and lived in many other places and cultures. My heart will always be firmly planted in the rich and fertile soil of my birth...in McDonald, Kansas.

I attended school in McDonald and remember it fondly. Thanks for taking pictures, but you missed some truly beautiful people, the residents of McDonald. Without people every town is boring.

Will immigrants ever attempt to live in this kind of area?

I think poor Scott is misinformed about the way of small town life in agricultural areas. Not a lot of farming takes place in town, hence the lack of people during daylight hours in good weather. A drive off the beaten path (off the highway) would show a lot of activity, especially in harvesting or planting season.

I also viewed Scott's opinions of Bazine, KS and my hometown of Norton, KS. I wish he had been in Norton for the fair or even on race nights. He might have been more comfortable with lots of people running around. What he fails to realize that although there may not be people just hanging around to entertain him, the people that live in these areas know and CARE about each other. I grew up knowing quite a few of the 3,000 people in my hometown--how many people do you get to know in the big city?
