Today was a long driving day. We are learning to better break up our time, and switched drivers every one to two hours instead of doing longer shifts. The most shocking part of the day was the drive from Kansas City to Grandma's house, as we drive through the Flint Hill's (the prarie) we were amazed at how beautifully green it was. We didn't know how much rain Kansas had been getting, and were so lucky to see this area which is normally card board box brown to be so full of blue-green waving grass. We found out from NPR while we were driving that this is actually one of the best years for Kansas for corn and soy bean farming.
We arrived at Grandma'a and Grandpa's around 6:30, just in time for BLT sandwiches with home-grown beefsteak tomatoes!
