SSTR - thanks for the tour.......loved seeing the change in scenery. Kansas fields look beautful. I know that you are always happy to see all that green and the rolling hills.

So where's part 2? Big Grin

Oops, my subject line was misleading, wasn't it? I forgot that I could continue to post pictures on the same thread by hitting "reply", rather than post separate pictures and calling each thread "pix 1", "pix 2", etc.

Great tour! Glad I don't live in or near a big city....noticed how "foggy" the pics looked there.
Looks like the wheat is ready to combine! Big Grin
But what about those temps for the last few days???? 118º some place in Kansas yesterday!

BET and SSTR -- I live in SE Kansas as well -- are we all neighbors? I'm in Fort Scott -- an hour south of Kansas City and 30 miles north of Pittsburg.
