Road trip to Houston part 2!

Next leg of my trip was driving to Salina, Kansas. The drive was very peaceful. The land was rolling hills, corn and hay fields and small towns. The weather was perfect with big puffy clouds at times, some windy areas but what was surprising was the oil drilling rigs that are called nodding donkeys in the middle of the corn and hay fields. I didn't know they pumped oil that far north. I listened to a book on CD all the way from Utah to Denver and another one from Denver to Salina. The town was just that, not a very large town but it is the home of Kansas State University. The hotel I stayed out was very nice and comfortable and they were very hospitable. I love driving and seeing our country.
