Years ago, I visited Dorthy's House and The Wizard of Oz museum in Liberal, Kansas, and it only seemed right to swing into the main character's childhood home.

A wonderfully organized and well-documented museum in the town of Walker was well worth a couple of hours of exploring before I headed out of town.

There is so much to learn about mining in the United States, and this was an excellent place to start, especially with all of the big heavy equipment they had to explore.

The giant pole bunion by the side of the road caught my eye a few days before, so I returned to check out the giant and to see what was in the museum.

This is one of the funniest and craziest places I've visited, with a collection of over 8,000 clowns. It is definitely an unexpected treat in Nebraska.

Driving through the town of Dighton Kansas, I see a sod house. I had to stop and snap a picture.

Unfortunately, the store was locked up, and I couldn't get inside, but at least the windows weren't too bad, and I could see inside. Maybe it'll be open next time.

No matter how many times I wander into a historical site dealing with Native Americans, I am continually disappointed at how so-called Christian Europeans treated them.

Enroute to Wichita, I had to make a stop in Dodge City. While I've been to the Boot Hill Museum a few times, it's still fun to take a step back in time and see what's new.

I spent a few hours wandering this amazing national Park service. Reconstruction was very educational and fascinating. Absolutely worth the visit.
