40. Wednesday Sept. 24-Our 21st state

Left the Fairfield Inn in Kearny, Nebraska and headed south a short distance to Minden, Nebraska to see the Pioneer Village as per the last blog.

Un. Real.

There are 26 buildings in the complex (some small(ish), some moved from other locations, some big) that hold an amazing treasure of everything. Literally almost everything. Lee took 205 pictures in the different buildings. Amazing!!

Conestoga wagon

Any change leftover?

General store from 1890

Old school house classroom from 1910



Remember these?

Did anyone have these?

There are far too many pictures to include in this blog.

Leaving Minden, we headed directly east toward Missouri and Kansas City. We intended to spend the night near the city and explore the city a bit sometime before heading a little more south.

We checked into a Marriott Hotel at the KC International Airport. Not a good choice. Nuff said.

Tomorrow we plan to get out and get moving. Check the next blog for more pictures of the Pioneer Village.

  1. Wasn't that your classroom, and your routine mode of transport?
