Sun, Sep 2nd –Westward Ho to the Wal-Mart, Lawrence, KS


We left the Hellrungs this morning about 7:00 a.m. and drove over the beautiful Clark Bridge into Missouri. (See photo) The view today along I70 thru Missouri was rolling farmland where some of the corn was already harvested, many XXX Adult stores along the interstate; many billboards about babies, like a picture of a baby with chocolate all over his hands and face that said, “Babies Make Messes, Parents Please have Patience”; small towns all along the way that the interstate went thru like Warrenton and Columbia; many cities have the same names as cities in Virginia (Danville, Stanton, Warrenton, Springfield, Washington) and we crossed the Missouri River 3 times. I doubled checked my Tolson genealogy on the computer and as I remembered that some of the Tolsons migrated to Howard, MO, which is just north of I70 about in the middle of the state near Booneville. The only real traffic we had was when we got to Independence and Kansas City, MO almost into Kansas. Hey, Toto, we ARE in Kansas now!
