Day 47, March 15, 2015 Kansas, Missouri, Iowa

Up and at ’em.   On the road at 5 am.  We just went through a little town called Greensburg, population 785.  According to The web there was a devastating tornado here in 2007 that wiped out the entire town. Not one building left standing.   According to reports the town not only completely rebuilt itself but the entire town is green, which explains all the windmills.   You would never know going through it now that this happened.

We went through the Flint Hills in Kansas.   Absolutely amazing.

That has to be where the amber Waves of grains comes from.   Just gorgeous.   We saw about a dozen pronghorns at one spot.  We almost missed them they blended in so well so the pictures aren’t very good but here is a Wikipedia link on them.

We went across Kansas, into Missouri and now in Iowa for the night.  Not far from Iowa City.   Been a long day and still have 5 hours to go in the morning to be there by 10 am so another early morning.

Turning in.   Goodnight y’all.

 

 

Good morning Kansas

Good morning Kansas
