BELFAST

Located on a sandy road north west about ten miles from Greeley. There's a foundation of a grain elevator, abandoned house, cellar, eureka garland oven from 1889, a junked out chevy, old farm equipment,

A town that didn't make it. When the railroad pulled out in 1937 everyone left. The house that still stands belonged to a family of old carpenters, and an odd tale that follows... One night after a lot of alcohol consumption there was a fight on the second floor where one man was knocked out of the window, they never thought nothing of it. The next morning they found the guy head first in the water barrel dead. Too drunk to get out.
