Rail Trail & Old Railroad Trestle, Lyndon KS, May 6, 2010
Rail trail under development
There is a rail trail under development adjoining the Crossroads RV Park. There is about 7 miles accessible from here at the moment. There is a plan to replace this trestle soon with a steel pedestrian bridge. Eventually I understand this trail will extend several hundred miles across Kansas along this old railbed. I think I'll take a walk tomorrow...

Canning the Blueberries
Another wait of more than an hour and he was back in the berry picking business. He found some good patches and was really canning the blueberries. Only room for so many and what appeared to be about two gallons spilled out behind. Now and again he used the claws of a front foot to rake a bush in front of the picker head.
