A rediscovered photo in my 2009-365 collection captures the Toulon grain elevator in Kansas over Thanksgiving weekend last year. A common sight in Kansas are grain elevators, this Toulon elevator is about two miles from Dad’s house. The layered colors in the stockpile were a definite bonus. An ever so faint half moon can be seen in the top left quad of the photo – the photos gods were gracious to me this day.

Having to deal with the DFW air pollution on a daily basis, I love the good ol’ Kansas clear blue sky. This shot has not a cloud one in it (the wind was probably blowing all them to Oklahoma). You should see a cloudless night sky up there sometimes….

As OFGuP Adam says, “See Kansas does have some hill country”. Thanks Adam for your Texas perspective on the great Great Plains.
