Default Old school 1800s

So I'm driving down the road where an old 1800s school is at...looking into the woods. I mention it to my wife and she says there was an old old building when she was a kid and points out the spot. Low and behold...



If you look real close you can see the collapsed roof!

There is a posted sign about 250 feet to the left and no other ones around...I have to go to the court house and check it out

I sent a letter to the owner...they live in Kansas. Hopefully I will hear next week whether I can hunt it. I hope so.

Resend it. Try another route.

I would try one more time, in the event that responding slipped their mind. Also I'd include a self addressed stamped envelope with some sort of letter, where all they gotta do is check "yes" or "no"...make it as easy as possible for them to give you permission!

Thanks for the responses! I like that idea..."make it easy". I'll be typing up a letter today. Getting cold here so I can hope for the response by spring.

Thanks again.
