One of our favorite places to hike is the LBJ National Grasslands. It doesn’t show in the pictures but this hike was a bit crazy. When we arrived at the trailhead it was PACKED. Normally there are a handful of cars but rarely more than 10. This time, there were cars everywhere. Turns out, there
Welcome back to Kansas! After visiting Mount Sunflower out in Wallace County Kansas, we stopped in for a visit at the Fort Wallace Museum. We have been to a rather large number small regional museums but this one takes the cake. We spent so longer wondering the galleries and the staff were great and answered
