We're Not in KS anymore!

This past weekend I traveled to Kansas with some of my co-workers.  We shopped, ate, gambled, visited a museum and this strawberry had a manicure!  It was wonderful.  One of the places we stopped and shopped and ate was in an Amish town.  I'm sorry to report we did not see one horse and buggy in the whole town!  The place was crawling with tourists....or the English?  It was State Fair time.  Note to self: don't visit a state where the state fair is 15 miles away!  The traffic was horrendous.  No wonder the horses and buggies were hidden.

Our first stop:

Salt Mine

We traveled 650 feet down to the mine.

Almost immediately we are told not to pick at the salt and definitely Do Not Lick the Salt on the Walls.  Hmmm....now I know why!

A little privacy....PLEASE!
Thankfully, that is not the potty we are to use.  A few years back, tourists used a porta-potty.  Today (and thank goodness we went now instead of a few years back) we have a beautiful salt mined wall bathroom...







And since we were in Kansas, what else would they have...



Home is where the Toto is!

There's no place like home....there's no place like home.....if you know what I mean.

Happy Monday, Grainiacs.  And may the Force be with you!!!

This is Dean's costume not Christopher's!  :(

The storage area to the right is a large poster!

The temperature is a constant 65*--not enough for Mr. Freeze!

George Clooney's costume. Unfortunately George was no where to be found.  I  looked!
