A day out

Tweet

Every year my brother and his wife take their vacation to celebrate their anniversary. They drove up here to Kansas, and we made aa day of it. Our stops included STRATACA the under ground salt museum. We had never been, and the temperature looked promising at a steady 68 F undeerground. I will say that it is a coolish day here anyway but the salt mines were pleasant. I will see later if I can share a picture or two. Besides being a museum there is also active salt mining going on. The caves are also used to store important documents, a cache of emergency food in case of a disaster, and Movie costumes and memorabilia. This is because of the constant temperature and dry air as well as being 650 feet under ground. We ate mid afternoon at a Chinese buffet (we will not be needing an evening meel). We also went to an Amish discount grocery store. Family went on to Winfield to visit sister-in-law's brothers. They may drive to Newton for church Sunday morning. I am tired. Wearing the hard hat for the two and a half hour tour made my head hurt, but it is needed for safety. I learned a lot. Hope you had a good day.
