## Resource

Lake McConaughy in Nebraska is at a historic low, revealing the submerged ruins of Old Lemoyne—a town intentionally flooded in 1941. With drought and low snowpack persisting, these eerie remnants—gas station columns, home foundations, and once-bustling streets—are exposed longer than ever. Local historian Calvin Berry, whose family’s roots stretch back to 1907, walks through the ghost town, reconnecting with a vanished world of steam trains and cattle drives. But reservoir officials warn this may be the last chance to see it: erosion from wave action will soon erase what’s left, making this haunting glimpse of the past fleeting and fragile.
