Then on to Denver tomorrow to visit my friends for a couple days of rest. The cool weather in departing and it is warming up on I-70 across the balance of Kansas and into Colorado. Lots of wheat fields, corn, soybeans and sugar beets. It s flat land and trees are rare, although the Cottonwood is the state tree. There is lots to see in Kansas and easy to travel as the land is so flat.
Hills are manmade.
Russel, Kansas is the home of Bob Dole. He wasn t home. Oakley, Kansas was made famous by Annie Oakley. She wasn t home, either. She died years ago.
