The coolest thing about Kansas is the Rocky mountains in Colorado are only 7 hours away. I lived in Wichita for 1 year and every 3 day weekend I had we headed out to Colorado to see pikes peak, some white knuckle highway thing, garden of the gods, 7 spings and a bunch of others. You think these mountains out here are cool, they make them look like a joke.

The summers suck cuz its hot and windy, windy all the freaking time. But you will def learn what they refer to as dry heat. I remember working on the car in 105 degree weather in jeans and a t shirt and not sweating, but being irritated by the constant fucking wind.

The winters suck, I remember them being cold as hell with crazy freezing rain sometimes over 1/4 inch thick over your whole car.

Oh, yeah check out the largest ball of twine from national lampoons vacation and the geographical center of the US, kinda like keys southernmost point but not nearly as cool. Oh yeah say good bye to the trees cuz there are hardly any out there.

Hope that helps some.
