Description
In our part of rural northcentral Kansas, limestone is something that a person cannot avoid. In fact, one of the things that sets us apart from most other areas is that we are in what is known as Post Rock Country, and our county is even recognized as a scenic byway. When this area was first settled, trees were far and few between, but there was (and is) an abundance of limestone. Consequently, settlers used the stone instead of wood in building fences as well as homes and buildings. We have literally thousands of post like this around.
