The main difference I noticed today between Missouri and Kansas is there’s more trees in Missouri. Pretty non-descript drive through corn, hay and wheat country. Only thing that was interesting was we drove part of the historic Route 66 for about 45 miles passing through some small towns. Completed in 1926, US Route 66 was one of the original highways in America’s numbered highway system. It originally ran from Chicago to Los Angeles. John Steinbeck dubbed it the “Mother Road” because it symbolized “escape, loss and hope of a new beginning”. Camping under the cottonwood trees in a quiet woodsy rv park located in the Missouri Ozarks making it a little more hilly and cooler than last night. One more night in DragOn and we’ll be home. Spending our last night pretty much where we started 6 weeks ago - in Land Between the Lakes, Kentucky.
