Troy, Eddie, Bill, Mike.

Troy and Mike rode gravel from KC down to near Ft. Scott and met Eddie and Bill there. We then spent the afternoon exploring Bourbon and Linn Counties (Kansas). 340 miles for the weekend for Mike.

Troy and Mike on their way down found this nice stream crossing (not as nice as the ones Eddie had for us):

In a cemetery south of Ft. Scott is this memorial to Gordon Parks, a famous Life magazine photographer. Look for the monument in the north end (historically Negro end during segregationist times) of the cemetery.
