Triple J Campground, FLOWER GARDEN, Russell Kansas

   Just enjoying a few days of no driving. Sittin' at Triple J Campground doin' nothing. Not necessarily our kinda park but relaxing never the less.






   We're in the middle of Kansas and as one of my friends said, " miles and miles of miles and miles"...and I thought Michigan had some flat spots!


  



   Have you ever seen Caribu? Now we have !  The owners of the park have a couple of unusual pets.Obviously the mini golf wasn't a success. But these critters are pros! They are very friendly, except during the rut, and will eat out of your hands.
   Had to make a "necessary " trip to town to restock the happy hour supplies. Very old world kinda town with cobblestone streets and angle parking. Saw a few buildings made of limestone bricks. The surrounding area and farms have limestone fenceposts . Due to the lack of wood out here in the "plains" the old timers utilized limestone, which cut easy when they dug it up and it hardened when exposed to air. Amazing what you learn as you travel !
   Happy hour tonite was just up the street and we tried our hand at KENO. Guess we'll just have to keep watching our budget. But it was fun. Tried our luck at powerball yesterday...same kinda luck.
   The park owner told us about a family of ferral kittens. I saw them this evening and tried my skill at approaching them..YEAH, Right!! Fed them some goodies and catnip but NO WAY were they gonna let me or Heather get close to them! Hope I can get some pictures of them this week.
   Tomorrow we plan on checking out the Oil Museum next to the park. Looks like it might be an educational endeavor! LOL.
   REMEMBER, LIVE YOUR DREAMS AS TIME GOES BY QUICKLY  CHARLIE & HEATHER
