Mid America Air Museum
Before taking off this morning, we toured the Mid America Air Museum. The museum was established in 1988 in a former Beechcraft plant and is billed as the largest aviation museum in Kansas with more than 100 aircraft, including 56 planes donated by retired Air Force Colonel Tom A. Thomas, Jr., of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
The first exhibit upon entering the museum is a wall of quilt squares, all airplane-related.
After leaving the museum, we had lunch at Applebee's in Garden City, Kansas and ended up at Jetmore City Lake Park just outside of Jetmore, Kansas. This is a nice park with 10 water and electric sites and 10 non-hookup sites, plus lots of room for dry camping...$8 for hookups, $7 for no hookups.
Miles driven: 129.2
GPS coordinates: N 38° 03.128' / W 099° 57.669'
