Miles today: 100.
More nothing today in western Kansas; I didn't think it was possible, but there's even less to see in these last 100 miles than yesterday's 100. It has been interesting, however, to be able to see the few things that do exist from many miles away, like the two storms we rode through today. Those kinda sucked when they finally got to us. But we do get to see the grain elevators for upcoming towns well in advance: the farthest was our destination tonight at 11 miles! Dighton is having their county fair here this weekend and tonight there were fireworks visible from the city park, which was a nice surprise. We also got followed by two incredibly cute dogs for long enough that we just had to stop and pet them. Their owner showed up in his car to collect them a few minutes later with apologies that were not at all needed.

I would have to agree with you on the fact that there is nothing to do in kansas. Wait to you get to teh dessert and there is nothing to see and it is hot as hell.
ReplyDeleteLatest news in Dighton - Robert Fox will be 80 on Tusday-- "Harvest hump" (whatever that is) appears to be normal. I bet those people are glad to see you. G-Dad
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for your description of a hot, boring desert! Hope you and Lou are feeling well. Don't forget plenty of water! Remember, I'm just doing the Mom thing - worrying! Love, Mom
