Missouri




We did what we we're supposed to do in Missouri, had an amazing fried chicken dinner in Abilene and had GREAT barbeque in Kansas City last night. On our way from Abilene, where we also enjoyed The Eisenhower Museum, we traveled to Wamego, MO which apparently is where the Land of Oz now resides. We went to a really good wine tasting at the OZ Winery and bought a couple of bottles. They actually do make the wine there...who knew there was good wine in Missouri, not us. Anyway, we continued down the street to the OZ museum, which houses a great and extensive collection of memorabilia. We are now melting in Kansas City, 99 today. We went to The Steamboat Arabia Museum, a Steamboat that sunk in 1856 with a full load of general merchandise for store's along the Missouri River that wasn't delivered...fascinating. We're on our way to St. Louis...and with the sweltering weather, we are going to the arch and will continue home...We are ready !!!
