Interesting things I saw today:
1. One of the last three remaining Atomic Cannons in existence. Doesn't that seam like a dumb weapon? Wouldn't one who shot it off be obliterated? I mean, what was next, the atomic hand grenade?
2. The largest easel in the world. Check out the photos and you'll see. It was in the little town of Goodland, KS. You can read the name on the water tower in the background. Notice the size comparison to the easel.
Long drive west today. Made it to Colorado Springs. Going to go slow from here on out. Not much more to report, but the amazing sunsets took my breath away once again.
