Visited Abilene KS

Today (and last night) we are in Kansas City, Missouri. Yesterday after we left the hotel in Salina, Kansas, we went to Abilene Kansas to take a Historical Train Excurision ride. We learned some very amazing things about Abilene. President Dwight D. Eisenhower was born and raised there. His presidential library is there. We didn't visit that yesterday but we do plan to in the future. It will make a great Homeschooling trip. We learned that Wild Bill Hickok was also the sheriff in Abilene. We got to see some local play acters do a gun slinger shoot out. It was very interesting and loud. Today we are headed to Worlds of Fun, here in Missouri. Then we will be staying overnight here in Kansas City again. Then we will head home tomorrow morning, and be back in Newton Kansas in time for Edward to go to the Birthday party he has been invited too. I do have to tell you that we are staying at the Argosy. We have an awesome room, very classy. Great for a Father's Day Weekend Vacation.
