Kansas - April 27, 2004

And the drive across Kansas.


Missed the state welcome sign for Kansas, but got the Kansas City, Kansas, city limit. [2048x1536]

Getting onto the Kansas Turnpike. [2048x1536]

I-70 is the Kansas Turnpike near KC. [2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

I-70 leaves, but we're staying on the Kansas Turnpike, now I-470. [2048x1536]

Taking us to Topeka. [2048x1536]

I-470 and the Kansas Turnpike. [2048x1536]

I-470 leaves the turnpike in South Topeka. [2048x1536]

And the turnpike heads for Wichita on I-335. [2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

That's redundant. [2048x1536]

Driving along the Kansas Turnpike. [2048x1536]

We join I-35. [2048x1536]

..which continues us on toward Wichita. [2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

Continuing along the Kansas Turnpike. [2048x1536]

We didn't see many range fires. [2048x1536]

Old-looking oil stuff along side the road. [2048x1536]

Operating oil well. [2048x1536]

This is our exit in Wichita. [2048x1536]

Wichita. [2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

Heading west out of Wichita on US 54 and US 400. [2048x1536]

Flatness of south central Kansas. [2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

In Greensburg, we stopped briefly at the world's largest hand-dug well. [2048x1536]

It's a Big Well. [2048x1536]

[2048x1536]

And it's also the home of the World's Largest Pallasite Meteorite. [2048x1536]

The meteorite. [2048x1536]

They want to make sure you can find the Big Well. [2048x1536]

Continuing west out out Greensburg. [2048x1536]
