Day 4: I found my Marbles and a Henge in Kansas

---

The day started at the Moon Marble Company Store. Not a lot to see here other than a ton of marbles of all colors and sizes. They also sell a bunch of other junk that your kids will want you to buy. The cool thing is that they have a Marble artist demonstrate how to make a marble.

TRUCKHENGE

Well I'm not so sure it's really a Henge... to me a henge is a grouping of objects displayed in a circular fashion. A henge should also have objects placed horizontally between two or more vertical objects. to me this is an artistic display of objects. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed Truckhenge and I think it is very well done, I just wouldn't use the word Henge. So anyways, when I arrived I found a locked gate and a sign that led me to the house down the road. The creator of Truckhenge was not available but his wife was more than happy to take me on a tour of the property. A friendlier tour guide I have never met. Not only did she show me Truckhenge and several other artistic displays, but also a vast collection of chainsaw art and to top it off she even gave me a full tour of the inside if their house which is also quite an artistic en devour. This was definitely worth the stop and I would love to return sometime while they are having an event on the property (they have a concert stage in the Backyard). Make sure you follow the link to the additional photos to see more of Truckhenge.

I also stopped at the Air Combat Museum. I was here 7 years ago, It's a decent Museum but not worth going out of your way to see it.

For dinner I went to Wild Hog Pit BBQ. Finally, some really good BBQ. Ribs, Brisket, Sausage, Slaw and Fries. Everything was good and they didn't run out of anything.
