Day 2 - Mt Vernon, IL to Colby, KS
We hit St-Louis by 8:30 AM and there NO traffic. We drove past our second NFL stadium there (Nashville was #1). We stopped just outside of St-Louis to gas and go and made it to Kansas City (third NFL stadium and second MLB) before we hit a McD's on the west / KS side for lunch. We arrived in Colby KS by 7:00 or so and tucked into the Holiday Inn Express for the night. The pool was just what we needed, even if Theodore took a bigger dip than he expected.
Here are two pictures from Day 2

Saw this in Missouri

Who knew Kansas was so windy?
