The Hartel Farm

Last December 28 I went looking for a photo in one last small town--Potterville, as it happens. I'd tried this before, on July 10, but that hadn't worked out. This time worked better, and the 366 Snaps shot shows what "downtown" Potterville looks like.

Around the time I moved to the area someone sponsored a study to determine whether Potterville should reorient itself to acknowledge that most of the town's businesses were actually along Lansing Road. As far as I know, nothing ever came of the study. The businesses remain where they were, and the central business district mostly consists of Gizzard City.

And the grain elevator.

The Hartels were early settlers in the Potterville area--in fact, one of the main county roads is named for the family. Here's their barn, and part of their road.
