A wonderful day to bike. The roads were smooth and with little or no wind, the miles went by quickly.
There were still a lot of oil wells as I left Pratt, but it soon turned into farmland. There were a few cattle, but mostly wheat. I saw my first cornfield shortly after leaving Pratt, but then it was back to wheat. There were several small towns today which helped break up the trip. I waved to a train which they don't usually response to and this engineer blew his whistle loudly making me jump. He obviously thought that was funny since he blew the whistle about four more times. It sounded like he was laughing.
Hutchinson is a nice town. It has a lot of museums, a zoo, exotic wildlife park, and is home to the Kansas State Fair.
Way to go Holly and Paige! Great job figuring out the musical terms.
Check out the Model H tractor with electric start......it requires an operating battery...a luxury on the Haines family farm....no wonder we always used the flywheel option!
