Burdick

We saw some collapsing houses and silos in the area surrounding town. Others farms had weathered farmhouses, worn by wind and time. 

The town sign says:

Burdick
Est. 1887
Friendly Town
Pop. growing

Just down the road is another sign announcing that the town is part of Morris County’s Meth Watch program.

Downtown are an antique store, a meat locker, and a brand new post office. The homes in town are generally very well maintained.

There’s a Park next to the American Legion. Across the road is the old high school, where the roof is off and chickens roam the once hallowed halls of learning.

I got some pictures of the purple flowers that are so common throughout the region. They were blooming everywhere on the beautiful early summer day that we drove through.
