Any Of You Ever Live In Kansas?

Apparently you've never been to the House On The Rock, or seen the world's largest loon in Mercer, or seen the Ice Castle in Eagle River or...I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud
They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

Colorado is close.
I have been to Kansas a few times hunting with some hayseed friends who moved out of the State long ago but go back to see family and such. I am in love with the wilds and mountains of the north so Kansas is very different...but I loved some of the places I have been to there. There is a surprising amount of wildlife around if you know where and how to look.
The cost of living is next to nothing!

I hope you are not seriousOriginally posted by GBRulzI can't see Wisconsin any more exciting than Kansas.
Summerfest? Alpine valley? Packers, Brewers, Bucks, Badgers? Deer hunting? Fishing? 4 seasons? Snowmobiling? Boating? do I need to go on?To much of a good thing is an awesome thing

I'm so sorry for your loss, Partial.
Let me put it this way... [rant]
I've driven through Kansas on a couple of occasions. Drove through the first time I moved to Houston from Wisconsin. There's NOTHING. Go find a map of Kansas. See the road going from Topeka to Wichita? There's nothing there. One quick exit at Emporia, that's it. The bridges for cattle going over the road are marked to the thousandth decimal place (no mile markers, but bridge number 145.003) Only other possible stops are tiny gas station/McDonald combinations in the median so you can't get off the road. At one point there's a sign: NEXT EXIT 145 MILES (basically, get gas here or you're f*cked.) It also costs $9.00 to drive through the state if you use the toll, if you don't the interstate might be shut down for no reason (I'm not joking, it actually happened to me) and you have to find your way through backfield Kansas without detour signs. Ever since that first trip, I've deliberately added an hour to my trip by going down through Missouri from K.C. to Joplin and then through Oklahoma whenever possible.
I had to go through Kansas three more times this year on my way to games in Austin, Norman, and Manhattan. It's still as bad as I remember (I also have a great shot of my friend mooning the entire state of Kansas while I was driving.)
Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the people are really nice. I just hate the state more than any other state in the Union.
Also... while I'm on a pissed-off anti-Kansas rant...
Rock, Chalk, suck my c*ck, Lawrence. FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU!!!! Brandon Rush is a prick.

So, what part of Kansas is she going to?

Cmon man, no female is worth getting all down and out over youngbuck!! For all you know you are gonna become a pimp and this is just destiny unfolding.Originally posted by PartialNothing is set in stone, not sure if she is going or not. I hope not, i'd be bummed, but you gotta do what you gotta do right. My faith leads me to believe that whatever is supposed to happen will, so I am not going to worry about it.

Yeah partial, Unless you want to marry this girl I would shrug it off and break the relationship until she comes back. If you are even a little unsure about her I would not attempt a long distance relationship.Originally posted by MadtownPackerCmon man, no female is worth getting all down and out over youngbuck!!

damn Oregon, you beat me to it....Originally posted by oregonpackfanDon't forget the world's largest Musky in Hayward or the World's annual Lumberjack Contest in Hayward!
kansas has got some great BBQ!!
not much of a winter, but they get some brutal ice storm in the winter, and tornado's in the summer.
if you think KS is a boring state to drive thru try Iowa!!! Interstate 80 thru IA has got to be the straightest road in the USA!! corn for as far as the eyes can see. on the up side, however that makes for some great hunting!!
