Day 1 - Wednesday

Our trip started Wednesday in Hutchinson. We're staying the weekend with my friend David, and if you know David, you know that you have to bring Taco Hut if you visit him. So, our first stop was to pick up some tacos.



We made it to Garden City in good time, with no stops! We hit a piece of tumbleweed rolling down the highway, but otherwise nothing much to report yet.

We took this photo of the wind farm near Dodge City. This thing is huge. They're kind of pretty when they're all out there slowly turning. On the other hand, I think they could quickly become an eye sore if they were allowed to deteriorate over time.


The APRS tracking system seems to be working thus far. Our progress can be found on findu.com.

Total miles traveled: 190

You are showing a current position only a few minutes old even though you are obviously stopped for the day. Are you sure that the van will start in the morning? Drive carefully!
