Dodge City, KS

Site 2, Gunsmoke Trav-L-Park, Dodge City, KS

Sunday, August 19 - Gunsmoke Trav-L-Park, Dodge City, KS 160.0 Miles Today, 13,156.7 For the Trip

Over 150 miles on US 50 heading east today. I could have done more, but decided to stop in Dodge City. I don't plan on hitting the city's "Frontier Town" attractions this trip; Carol & I did them on a previous trip in 2004. I did unhook & made a short trip to the local Walmart for some stove fuel, a couple of books, and a package of Bubba Burgers. After that it was back to site 2 at the Gunsmoke Trav-L-Park.

The "plan" is to head to Wichita and the local AAA office to get some maps for the rest of the trip. Of course, to do that I have to make up my mind what the rest of the trip will be. Even though it will be hot, my current thoughts are to head to northwestern Florida & Cedar Key, then up the coast to home. If I can't stand the heat I'll head north sooner, but I really do want to see Cedar Key.

Until Tomorrow -

  1. Hey, Jon! I thought you had dropped off the map. Dodge City must be quite changed from what it was nearly 40 years ago when we passed through it. I hope you are surviving midwest heat.

  2. I'm still going, but have been in locations where the cell coverage has been slow or worse. I'm heading southeast...
