I follow you Mr. Dave! Although I don’t remember seeing Kansas play but I saw both prequels, Saratoga and White Clover more than once. Both bands were from Topeka, played gigs all over the state and were quite popular, almost a regular at a large bar just outside Holton Ks. The name of the bar escapes me at the moment. No doubt I’ll wake up at 2AM Sunday morning and it will hit me but for now I’m blank. Paul

A great find, and a very fine capture. You do good work with that phone.

The mushroom rocks would make for a natural geographical center marker but the actual center point is about 80 some miles north by slightly northwest just outside another rural dinky Kansas township of Lebanon. I think they have a fancy dancy federal marker there too. On this side of the road 1 rock is mushroom shaped, one looks like a life boat and the other looks like a giant pile of buffalo dung. These rocks are very very soft sandstone hence all the graffiti carved into them. You can do it with a stick. Kids!! Paul

This is fabulous Paul, and I really like having the map....this is almost exactly in the center of the continental United States....almost exactly, to my eye. Traveller
