The Big, Scary, Smelly Well

Our next destination was in Greensburg, Kansas. It was the Big Well, the world's largest hand-dug well at a total of 109 feet deep. I got to (was forced to) walk down into the well. Basically you are walking down these stairs and it keeps getting darker as you go deeper along with the worsening odor. I made the trek down the stairs alone as my dad stood at the top of the well with his camera. When I got to the last step I noticed all the safety equipment which I assume is for if someone falls down into the well. I was down in a cold, dark, smelly well and I was scared. Pretty much after my dad took the pictured I sprinted back up the stairs.
