South Haven


South Haven was a town along the railroad, formed in 1879 (just in time for the land rush to Oklahoma).

The town has some nice neighborhoods and dirt roads. We saw a few small businesses, a school, and were generally impressed with this little hamlet.

The school had a sign for a fallout shelter -- a reminder of the grim nuclear spectre that reached even tiny towns in Kansas just a generation ago.

We liked the slogan of Yearout Tanning: "We'll Tan Your Hide!"
