This is a blog about a small town in Kansas that is trying to keep from disappearing. Barnard, Kansas is a small but interesting little town. Mostly peaceful, sometimes serene, occasionally scandalous, but never boring. Contact the Barnard Banter at barnardbanter@aol.com.

How I came across Barnard, Kansas
It must have been the summer of 2008 when I was first introduced to the town of Barnard. My partner, Jeff, grew up there and many members of his family live there. We went up to stay with Monty, our friend and landlord in Wichita. I decided that Barnard was enjoyable enough and we should buy a house for us to stay in as Monty's house there was really too small. We tried to buy a beautiful victorian fixer-upper but lost a battle with the city on that one and ended up buying a little architectural treasure that belonged to an interesting family. These are a couple of pictures of both houses.
