Tall Grass Prairie National Preserve

 This morning was a visit to 11,000 acres of native tall grass prairie in Strongville Kansas.  This location has a magnificent ranch which was developed in the 1870s. Today it is a Kansas Trust, part of the National Park Service, and home to 14 buffalo including one new born this spring.  The 1-1/2 hour bus tour was great.



Later in the day we were in Wichita to visit Botanica Gardens.  The 100F temperature cooled down a little as the sun set. Another good day on the road.
