Making the Best of a Rainy Day in Wichita
Dear Friends,
Thursday was our last day in Wichita and the rain didn’t mar our sightseeing or our spirits. Our dear friends Monica and Marlyn Eshelman have been great hosts. They have had everything planned to perfection. Bernie has been disappointed to find that most of his childhood landmarks have been replaced by decades of change. There’s a reason folks say that you can’t go home again, but oh my, the stories we’ve heard!
We leave Friday morning and are taking a different route this time…going south through Dallas. No more exciting mistakes hopefully!
Here’s our best pics from yesterday, most notably the local murals plastered all around the older section of Wichita’s art district and a tour of the Frank Lloyd Wright home which is a must see. The pic at the top of the blog is just for fun. We found a hat shop!
Hope you enjoy!

Do wish Beverly and I could have been there to join you, Bernie and the Eshelman’s. Would have been a blast to add to the stories of the past. I did think I felt my ears burning a couple of times. 🙂
I trust you will have a safe journey back to Huntsville. And of course I look forward to this years blogs from Paris and Bernie’s birthday.

You could have used that big sunhat on your trip to Churchhill Downs.

Always enjoy reading about your travel…still laughing about your “detours” going into Wichita the first day. Thanks so much for sharing your entertaining stories and enjoyable photos.
