Ranches and farms in the western part of the country probably do not have any more junk laying around than those who live in more moderate climates. But the dryness of the desert preserves metal and wood far beyond the automatic rust and mold of the East. Someone leaned that saw blade against the wagon wheel ages ago. It looks like it could have been there for over a hundred years and it is likely to be there another hundred. It gives you pause about the importance of material things in our lives, or it should.
