Sept 12 - Dorothy's Part of Kansas

We arrived in Wichita Kansas on the 12th just in time for one of their “severe” thunder storms with associated tornado watch. We ended up with large hail stones, lots of strong wind and heavy rain. Wonder how Dorothy handled those storms without a TV warning system to tell her when to go into the storm cellar. Perhaps that is why she ended up in Oz with the Wizard.

Decided this was a good day to leave the motorcycle in the trailer and just rest and read books. It was a welcome respite and we will now be better ready for our searches of Wichita graveyards and old residences. I have done a great deal of research and am anxious to see how much more of our family stories we can put together with the facts and figures.
