1919 map of peach orchards, with each dot representing 500 acres of peach trees. Millions of peaches! Peaches for me!

There appears to be a thick line of peach trees along each state boundary and coast

Peaches come from a can they were put there by a man in a factory downtown

If I had my little way, I'd eat peaches every day

You can still find wild peaches in some areas of Kansas from these trees! I tried some that were originally brought here by Exodusters and they tasted like freedom.

What's going on at the AR-OK border?

Cherokee/Choctaw tribal lands extend to the Oklahoma border with Arkansas.

Oh, right. This is right after statehood. Now, you wouldn't even know you were on tribal land unless someone told you. I grew up in the Choctaw Nation and the only thing that really tells you you're in tribal land is a couple of road signs and the casinos.
