We're not in Kansas anymore . . .







Thank goodness, what a brutal state, Kansas. We got into Kansas City at 1am, we got up early, ate our Comfort Inn breakfast, then went to try to buy a thank you card for cousin Leon, what a yucky downtown, finally found a CVC Pharmacy, got a card and stamps, then we couldn't find a post office or mail box, finally found a huge building that was the post office, we were not sure it was even open.


We decided to get the heck out of Kansas City. We ran through to Toledo . . . Toledo, yes, the home of Brown v Board of Education, we made a stop, and the old brick school building where it all happened is now a National Park Site, the Ranger there gave a very complete history, and in the building was a really nice exhibit, along with photographs, and video stories.








After leaving Topeca, we just drove Hwy 70 West, which just goes on forever, long and as straight as far as you can see.
