Day 29 - Maysville to Hutchinson

An early start had us on the road and headed into Kansas. After passing by St. Louis we started to notice that the road and surroundings were remarkably similar to the last time we were in this part of Kansas, about 12 years ago. We made it to Tony's brother's house in the mid afternoon without any problems. Matt and Abby and their daughters moved to Hutchinson about a year ago. Unfortunately the girls were off visiting with their grandparents so we missed them on this trip. We went out to dinner at a restaurant called Carriage Crossings in the nearby town of Yoder. The town was originally a Amish settlement and still has a sizable Amish population. The restaurant serves traditional Midwestern meals and even has a family style option. We decided on the family style roast beef and fried chicken. It came with green beans, corn, salad, homemade bread and butter, mashed potatoes and two types of gravy. Anne felt right at home. The dinner was finished off with slices of pie and we all went home with wonderful food coma feeling only the best of meals brings on. That night Michelle got to sleep in the attic (with her new blanket). It was a first for her since most homes in California don't have finished attics or basements. Technically, Matt's house is 4 stories.
