Kinsey sits where the pavement stops and where the New Deal gave farmers a fresh start.
A farming community of about 100 families, it fills the bottomland north of the Yellowstone River, the only dot on the highway map between Miles City and Terry.
Irrigation ditches cut through green beet fields. Small dairy barns, peppered through the farm sites, form a recurring pattern - differing in color, repeating in size and shape. To the south, bone-dry hills rise beyond the Yellowstone. Interstate-94 spills though a dip in the hills, the distant vehicles looking as tiny as Matchbox cars.
