Another day on the open road! What an adventure…..or should I say KANSAS!!!! What a flat expanse of nothingness…….

   This stretch was definitely boring. We started out in Missouri, which was pleasantly hilly with plenty of trees to keep you attention. When we crossed into Kansas it continued that way for a bit, but, eventually, the topography got really flat, and stayed that way. The plus to all this was we could watch the large storm bearing down on us. It never actually came towards us, but I thought a tornado was going to blow me away for about half the day!

   Other than the brief encounter with the edge of a storm, we were saved from a wrong turn by our GPS unit in Kansas City. If you haven’t  been that way before the downtown area can be quite confusing. In topeka we had lunch at a Red Robbin then went on our way. We had diner at a somewhat shady looking but really good chinese place in Limon, Colorado. We saw several large wind farms, and many Army and Air Force Bases. I can’t wait to cross the mountains tomorrow. We might make a little side trip to Arches National Park too! I wanted to go to the Spyderco Knife factory, but it opens at 10 and we need to get on the road.

More to follow Tomorrow!
