One of the few things Colin really wanted to do while we were in Kansas was visit “the prairie.” Lawrence, where I’m from, isn’t exactly “typical” Kansas. It’s a liberal college town with stop lights and everything if you can believe it, but lucky for Colin, there is plenty of prairie and small town Kansas to see.
We headed out to Council Grove, KS (which was the last stop in a city for settlers heading West on the Sante Fe trail) and then headed towards Cottonwood Falls and the Tall Grass Prairie preserve. It made for some good picture taking
Not a lot of people venture out to Kansas unless they have good reason to, and honestly, I can’t blame them, but it can be beautiful.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! I’m trying to get back onto some sort of semi regular posting schedule. I’m not sure what that means yet, but we will figure something out…
Make it an amazing New Year my friends!
I’ve only been to Kansas once – Topeka for a conference. I hope you had a fantastic time back home. Happy New Year to you and Colin!
I’ve never been to Kansas, but these photos are beautiful! Safe travels!
well I have and it is beautiful! All those rolling plains! But i think the people are the most beautiful. agreed?
The pics are great and from a photography perspective…that whole color scheme, vibe, rustic-nature…I could have a field day.
Glad you have enjoyed your KS time!
Merry Christmas to the both of you! Kind of hoping I never find myself in rural Kansas, at least not alone and lost.
Gorgeous pics! I remember KS being pretty on our drive from FL to CA, I have nice farmhouse and snow pics.
I live in the Canadian parries and love them
Looks beautiful to me! I hope you have an incredible New Year!
