Ogallala, Nebraska

The Boot Hill Genre:  Cemeteries seem like perfect places for communities to inter time capsules, far better than city parks and town squares, which have all sorts of uses and experience all sorts of changes. Ogallala's 100 Year Capsule was buried in 1984 to mark the anniversary of the town's incorporation in 1884. In 2084, it will be exhumed and opened. As for "Inspect 2034": Never heard of such a thing! The capsule supposedly includes two bottles of Scotch. Think it will survive a hundred years? Boot Hill Cemetery. [2019]
