The Oregon Trail - Day 25

We are both getting eager to get home.  The clouds were heavy.  Kansas is not exactly chock full of thrilling sightseeing objects.  Kansas really plays up the Wizard of Oz fame.  Note the sign on the side of the road in the picture below.   The other thing I like about Kansas is the state flower - Sunflower - my favorite flower.  President Dwight D. Eisenhower's museum and library is in Abilene, Kansas.  Also, there was a sign in Gorham, Kansas that said it was the boyhood home of Bob Dole and Arlan Spector.  I don't know if they were bragging or complaining.  Just kidding.

At Vesper,Kansas we drove for miles, maybe 15, and saw thousands of those huge wind turbines.  Alternative energy is really being pushed out west.  I hope it works out and all those things are maintained and the major initial cost is going to be recovered.  Time will tell. 

Marmalade's Side of the Story

I am feeling like the seat cover.  I want to go home to my Sidney. 

We are proud of Aunt Tonya.  She made all 60 miles in the walk for breast cancer research in Atlanta this weekend!!!  Yippee!!!  I am so tired of riding, I might even like to get out and walk about 60 miles.  Not really.

Nonnie put me out by the Oklahoma state sign in a wind storm and I got all blown over.  You can hardly see me laying down in all that tall grass.  Sidney, Baker, can you see me?

I am in front of the Oklahoma sign's right leg.  My fur even got messed up in that grass.
