Kansas plan included stopping in Abilene for another presidential tour. The Eisenhower museum and complex.

First up was breakfast at the Whistle Stop Café a 1/2 block from the Eisenhower complex.

Ike in a classic pose.

The Presidential prayer hanging where Ike and Mamie are interned.
Across the street from the Eisenhower Museum, was another HOF.

Mike and Ginger. Guess which one was a champion Greyhound racer. Picture at the Greyhound HOF.

Some of the various trophies given out in Greyhound racing.

After leaving Abilene, I stopped in Russell, KS at the Oil Patch Museum. a model of a derrick.

Some equipment on the grounds at the museum.
This wrapped up 2 full weeks on the road. Wednesday is an ambitious day. We will see what I get done.
There is greyhound racing here in Jacksonville, but I've never been. And I always wondered where the Oil Patch Museum was......NOT!

ReplyDelete...I wonder if I could chain Mike to something so he is stuck in Denver long enough for me to get him into a Coors Brewery tour. ...'ta hail with the Rockies ball game and those $9 beers; go on a Coors factory tour and get FREE beer!!!
