[Cat Brules]

SORRY I POSTED THE WRONG LINK!

LINK IS CORRECT NOW!

 

The State of Utah has decided to plunk down about $140,000 to restore Butch Cassidy's childhood home. The place is pretty run down and is almost ready to collapse. Here is a link to an article with a lot of photographs. I found it pretty interesting maybe you will too.

Actually, to restore a house that MIGHT be a criminal's boyhood home. The search for municipal income has been stretched to its limits....or beyond.

There must be some $$$$$ somewhere in that hole, for payback.

Butch is considered a bit of a HERO around these parts. Kind of a Robin Hood type bandit.

They probably could make MUCHO cash restoring such cabins and
