We changed our plans a bit for Kansas so that we could make it to the Orioles post season game. We only spent one night in Goodland and in Salina then on to Kansas City, Missouri. We visited with our friends, Beth and Steve, looked at some of the fountains in town and ate some barbecue. Right across the RV Park was a nice trail around a lake to walk Ripley.

Ripley was a little scared of the skeleton, when he jumped up, the glider moved
Which scared him even more |

I grew up with Beth till 7th grade, then they moved to Maryland, where she went to school with Guy
Steve was Guy's best friend. When I moved to MD, Beth introduced me to Guy... |
