Into Kansas on the Yellow Brick road

Today was classed as a half rest day as we only had 40 miles to do, however we had a strong head wind which made it feel like 60 miles.

We set off later than usual


-



My memories of Oklahoma are grain silos





We passed through a small town called Hooker, which has less of a meaning in the UK.
As you might imagine their was a range of souvenirs on sale







We progressed steadily to the Kansas state line heading into the wind



We are in Kansas for a few days now.

We are starting to see some green grass and more population.

As an aside I am someone who never knowingly dreams during sleep, however I have been dreaming almost every night for the past week or so,mostly disconnected rubbish, my room mate Nick has also been dreaming. We have a rider who is a doctor who reckons people dream more at higher altitudes. We are at about 4000 feet, higher than Snowdon. Who knows?

Good to have a shorter day today as a full rest day is some way away.
