Glad ya got out and enjoyed yourself!!!!
Thanks!
Made it to Vance AFB Oklahoma and visited my son and his girl. Wow @ his Air Traffic Control center.
Then rolled across the plains of OK and Kansas, hung out in Dodge City, and made it all the way to Denver tonight! I think I'm psycho going 600 miles on VERY RURAL back roads in 108 degree heat, the locals advised against it unless I rode with someone. I went sometimes 50 miles without seeing a living human or even a cow.
This exactly what I saw all day.
I was so excited to see a tree and cows I had to stop and see if it was a hallucination.
The locals warned me not to step off the side of the road without snake boots and such. But I had to get a pic of this weird plant.
Fields of nothing, but hi-tech windmills cover power for Buffalo, Kansas. They are proud of their Bison but no one in that 400 people town could show me one.
Made new friends in Dodge City Kansas. They explained Dorothy nor Toto is there, but Wyatt Earp is the town hero there. Everything is about him in that town too. I almost stopped at 300 miles and stayed at the Wyatt Erp Inn, but I went on to CO.
Ok now I'm in Denver, where I wanted to be! Was tough getting here, a few thousand miles in a few days. I'm going to criss-cross the Rockies a few times. Meeting some forum friends that will take me to the highest spot. Hopefully I'll have an opportunity to take pics here that aren't sunblown out... west OK and Ks was incredibly bright and hot!
