And, yes, even more leavenworth

Sunset in Leavenworth at 8:19 p.m.

More leavenworth

This is the Moon Marble Company in Bonner Springs, Kansas. We took the boys here to see how real glass marbles are made. My understanding is that this is one of the, if not THE, last place in the U.S. to actually hand make glass marbles. The place has a wonderful toy store which we more than had time to see!

Leavenworth Here We Come!

Just tried posting some pics of our drive through Iowa to get to Des Moines but the blogger app on my iPhone wouldn't let me. I'm trying on my iPad but still without much sucessthe only pic I have here is of my feet in our hotel room. Oh well. Despite the trouble uploading a picture, I'm still pretty impressed because blogging on an iPad is much easier than on the tiny iPhone.
