I departed Ft Collins this morning and headed for the flatlands of eastern Colorado and Kansas. When I stopped for breakfast, I started talking with a local at the counter. He asked which way I was headed. When I told him, he told me that I would be riding thru some beautiful country, he said that the wheat was up and green and that it was one of the prettiest sites in the state. It wasn't a snow capped mountain, but I really couldn't disagree with him. The picture really doesn't do it justice.
When I was checking my Kansas map I saw a small highlight which said "World's Largest Twine Ball". Who could resist the allure of such a thing? So I routed myself that way to make sure I didn't miss it. I'm not sure that you can really call it a ball, but it is different. Just another thing that I can check off my bucket list.
I'm heading towards home now. Not really sure of my final route yet, but figure if I just keep heading southeast, I'll get there eventually.
