We woke up this morning to 27 degrees and sunshine. The wind was down and it was time to get ready to head towards home. It’s over 1000 miles to get home.
It was a long day of traveling. We went through four states (South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska and Kansas). Larry drove 360 miles and it took about eight and a half hours. We stopped a few times to stretch our legs and once to have lunch. When we were in Iowa we stopped at a a Welcome Center, Larry talked with the lady working there and asked if she had a Nebraska map. She gave him one and suggested a route to take. Larry looked at the route and decided her suggestion was excellent. While looking at the map and checking online he decided we would stop for the night in Concordia Kansas.

Concordia has a city park that has free camping with power. They ask for you to fill out a form and to give a donation. You can walk to Taco John’s or Pizza Hut to eat. If you need a courtesy car just call a number and a car will pick you up. Too cool.
We arrived at Concordia City Park at 5:00 and found a site. After setting up we walked down the street to Taco John’s for dinner. When we were walking back we stopped by Walmart and picked up dessert. While walking through the park I took pictures of things that caught my eye.

Concordia City Park is beautiful, it has a dog park, disc golf course, playground, dump station and restrooms. The sites are very nice with barbecue grills and trash cans. Kansas National Guard is right next door to the park. There is also a small airport. The park is being used by the locals playing disc golf and taking their dogs to the dog park.
