I left Farmington this morning and took some roads recommended by the motel desk clerk. They were good roads and a nice way to start the day. Later, I took off on some back roads that didn't show on my atlas. I always figure that when I come to a town I can find out where I'm at. Turns out that when the town only has 43 people, it doesn't show on the atlas either. Spent the better part of an hour on narrow two lane roads winding thru the countryside before I hit a major numbered highway. It was the best part of my day. Continued thru Missouri and entered Kansas at Ft. Scott. I love old neighborhoods and spent some time going thru the Ft. Scott historical area. Also visited the national cemetery. I've visited a few others, but it is always a somber experience. If i could order weather for my entire trip, the last three days are exactly what I would want.
