HUTCHINSON, Kan. (October 24, 2023) – A fall season photograph of downtown Buhler, KS will be featured on the social media pages of the Nationally Syndicated TV Show Small Town Big Deal.
The photo, entitled: “Fall in America’s Heartland | October in a Small Town” was taken by Michael Hinton, a rural Kansas native and Hutchinson, KS resident; during a recent weekend visit with his wife, Tonya. Buhler, KS (Pop. 1,297) is a city in Reno County, KS, located 12-miles northeast of Hutchinson, KS (Pop. 39,138). Buhler offers visitors a great experience and exquisite small town charm all year round.
Hinton shared he took the photo while walking the couple’s adopted rescue Sheltie (Winston), along the sidewalk in front of Buhler’s Grand Staff Thrift Boutique. “The view was absolutely picturesque, so I had Tonya hold Winston’s leash while I snapped a picture. I have a passion for visual arts & communications, and I’m constantly mindful of scenery that speaks to capturing a given moment in time, for sharing its splendor with others.”
Michael added, that he and his wife Tonya have a genuine and enduring love for the State of Kansas and rural, small town America; each having been raised 15-miles apart from one another: Michael in the rural countryside between Newton, KS (Pop. 18,241) & Walton, KS (Pop. 213); and Tonya in Peabody, KS (Pop. 922).
Hinton’s photo of downtown Buhler, KS is slated to post on the Show’s social pages [Facebook, Instagram, & Web Blog] on Wednesday, October 25.
