Kansas City Here We Come!

On to Independence!!

We are set to leave our little spot here at the Graybill's. Our little RV was comfy, here among the oaks and laurels. Just across the way, Greg and Caytie's homey farmhouse lights winked welcomely to us. 

We had a few days free from long distance driving while we got to know the two grand babies, one three years old, the other three weeks. 

We attended Greg’s church while there and enjoyed meeting the congregation. It was evident they loved their pastor and his family.

Today we'll drive across part of Iowa and head south to Missouri. We'll take most of the day to get there and tomorrow, we'll head over to the Truman Library and learn some more history. 

There were more farms along the way and we saw many combines harvesting corn. 

We had strong wind gusts for the more than 300 miles, and I declined my time to drive—too scary for me. Jim did a great job driving our SQ and we drove by an accident that just happened where it appeared a gust of wind tipped a large pick-up truck and its trailer down an embankment. 

Next day.....

We visited the Truman Library and Museum. The expansive green lawns and established trees contrasted with the bright blue sky. 

Later this afternoon, we'll walk the neighborhood  and see President Truman’s home. It is located in what is called Old Independence. There are many Victorian style homes in this neighborhood.

 Tomorrow, we head out to Kansas. Eisenhower Library and Museum are next on the list.

Catcha later!
