Trees again! 8/3/2018

From our campground in Homewood, KS, we headed east and south toward Branson, MO where we will see a few shows and from which we will explore the Ozarks.

The first noticeable change came just west of Salina, KS. We could see many more trees along the road, replacing the open prairie. By the time we reached the Missouri border, trees were everywhere, and the hills were becoming blanketed, and the land much more hilly. As we drove east, in Peoria, KS we passed a farm with a tree growing inside a silo. It would have been difficult to turn around and come back to snap a picture of it, so we moved on. But it looked like this:

Apparently, that phenomenon is not that uncommon here in the Midwest. The abandoned silo provided a sheltered spot for the tree seed to take hold.

On to Branson!
