Becker's Bunkhouse. |
Here's a map showing old Medora and new Medora. Medora moved a mile to the southwest in 1904 or 1905. There is nothing left of the original town site. |
A general store - the photo was taken in old Medora. |
A postcard from the early 1900s. |
The Medora school - a learning center moved in 2011 to another location. The school sits vacant. |
I was born in 1950 and grew up in Medora and went to grade school in the brick building pictured. We bought candy and a few groceries in the store owned by the LaPorte's, now Becker's Bunkhouse. We were able to scour the ditches for discarded glass pop bottles and trade them in to buy a dime bottle of soda pop. Strawberry and orange were my favorite flavors.
