Twaddled enough going through Kansas yesterday that we only made it to Columbia, Missouri last night, and so are waking up to thunderstorms and forecasts of 4-6 inches of rain in the next 6 hours and flash flood warnings, from here on through western Illinois. Sigh. This was- and still might be- the day to arrive home, though it was, pre-rain, already a 900 mile drive.
Kansas was heat and wheat, wind turbines, roadside signs promising quirky museums and sites, with one offer taken up (we visited the Oz Museum) all others declined , including a chance to see "the world's largest Czech egg!"
Breakfast, sadly, was not cinnamon buns at the Calico Kitchen in Texas, but we did our best, which fortunately was quite good, and remarkably, in addition to homey hash browns and one day fresh eggs, included home made cinnamon buns!
Procrastinating because I hear that thunder and rain even over the cranked up AC in our room, but it's time to wake up DS and to get driving.
