There is a decomissioned missle silo in Greeley. It housed ICBM missles during the cold war. From what we could see it looks as if only one missle could be loaded, but perhaps there are other doors we could not see. You have to schedule a visit at this site. We don't have to do that since we went into a silo at Ellsworth AFB in Box Elder, South Dakota. Still it is interesting to think the country town of Greeley housed such missles.
This is the only thing that marks the entrance to the Missle Silo park
And this is the only silo pit we could see, but there may be more on the property.
It was very interesting to see this. I've always known it was here, but never bothered to check it out.
FYI: tomorrow's full moon is the last blue moon until 2015. I know that is a fact but I do not know why. Now you know what I know!
