We will have to remember this if we make our way through Kansas again. I don't have a big problem with the prairies but Kevin gets tired of them pretty quickly.

However as much as I love our part of the state, I don't think you can beat the Flint Hills through the middle of the state. We make several trips to Wichita a year to see our kids and grandkid living there. I never get tired of the open prairie and hills as we drive through the area on 400 highway. It is really beautiful.

Kevin tends to think of it as boring but as we were driving along I said that I was having no problem with things to look at as the scenery past us by. Many people think the same about Saskatchewan and now we are learning that there is a lot more to see then just what you see along the main roads.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-3220098262443882272015-10-14T10:34:14.116-04:002015-10-14T10:34:14.116-04:00To be honest we aren't really into swimming th...To be honest we aren't really into swimming that much but if it was a really hot day then yes, we would go for a dip for sure.
