I'll have to make it out there sometime to the tallgrass preserve. I stayed at the Stone House B&B one weekend, which backs to the preserve and had the most wonderful morning walking around the tallgrass.

That is why I keep reminding folks of the opportunities. Thanks for stopping by, and leaving a note! ;-)

Oh, the Flint Hills! Sounds great. We are farming out here on the rolling hills of Maryland.

Candylei,

One of my ancestral lines comes from Maryland, Charles and Prince George counties... what county are you in?
I visited around Bryantown in 1992, to see the area. Very nice. Hope to return for another visit in a few years.
