Today our travels were mostly on the interstate because of the winds, rain, and storms coming through the area.
This part of Kansas was a continuation of the rolling hills of Missouri. The only difference was a lot less trees:
And a lot more prairie:
More wind:
Did you notice the old windmill in the center of the above picture? What a contrast – old and new wind power and they both work – :-))).
This guy checking on his cattle:
More harvest time:
The bluffs as we got closer to Wilson Lake:
We are staying at the Sylvan Park Campground – an Army Corp of Engineer campground - on Lake Wilson. Our site:
We are camped below the dam. If you look at the above picture, the green in the background is the dam. There is only a few of us in the campground – waiting out the wind and rain that continued until around 7 PM. Tomorrow we expect to do a little sightseeing around the area so stay tuned.
