  • I remember a song…Glen Campbell... Careful of those linemen.....

  • @nobarkus:

    Now why didn't Dorthy put a restraint on Toto? The house spinning around like that, very, very dangerous.


    "We're not in Kansas are we Toto?"

    Nobarkus - You are hilarious!

    Witch-i-ta where the Wicked Witch lives?

    BTW - I've seen The Wizard of Oz every year since I was 5 years old - it gets better and better the older I get.

  • We will be there tomorrow to pick up a load. It's the only place in the US that boasts Dorothy's actual house.

    I figured I'd given it away with just the one clue…

    Y'all are a lot of fun!

  • Self portraits are supposed to go up in "other pets"

    Whaaa?! :confused:Are you saying I look like an animal? Baroooo!!:p

  • Dan: You can always make me smile….

    We have the state named: Kansas, but where will we be in Kansas?

    (I decided to try it this way to make it more fun and open us up to possible visits.)

  • wamego is where the "museum" is

  • Well I know there is a replica of her house in Liberal…is that where you are?

  • Dan little off track here but self portrait not a "animal". LOL

    I gave my answer a few posts back that it started with a "W". ;)

  • We were in…

    Yes, Ms. Rita: Liberal, KS

    I thought that one would be easier!

    Next one coming shortly...

  • So originally Dorthy's house was in the middle of nowhere, KS, blew off it's foundation and landed in Emerald City, then they towed it back over the rainbow to Liberal? WOW, how'd they do that?

  • It's been a very long time since I read The Wizard of Oz. Is Wichita where the story starts?

    I googled "Dorothy's House Wichita" and nothing came up except ways to get to Liberal. That's where the house is that is advertised all over Kansas as THE Dorothy's House. From what I understand (and I have been wrong before…it could happen again) the house in Liberal is where they did some of the filming.

    But I love the Witch-ita reference...:D

    I think Dorthy's house was just considered to be a farm house "out in the middle of nowhere".

    So, I guess I couldn't have seen you in my recent trip throught the city of flying pigs (for those unaware, there is one). Two hours of stop and go southbound, trying to get to the airport. I was in the backseat and looked at every truck on the off chance there might be an AJ sighting. Obviously, no luck, as you were a few time zones away :) Had I seen AJ, I might have jumped out of the car I was in and jumped into your truck for a couple of miles…just to say 'Hi'...that's how slow going it was. My advise, for north or southbound, take the by-pass...but what do I know? There were plenty of trucks willing to wade through the traffic.

    Aha!…But I didn't say largest living animals…I was speaking of the Great Grandfathers of Northern California, the Giant Sequoia commonly known as Redwoods. :D

    I've been trying to do that…it's not as easy to reach the distinctive landmarks with a semi as with other vehicles, including RV's. All the really cool places have signs up that say "No Trucks" and it really bums me out. I understand, though, because there are so many truck drivers who just throw their trash where ever they want instead of find a garbage can. And they pee on the ground rather than expend the extra energy to walk 75 feet into the bathroom. Trucker areas reek to an eye-watering level in hot areas because of this. But I do try to find distinctive landmarks when I can...the little lake in Minnesota, the rock formation in Colorado, coastal trees in North Carolina.... I will try to find more landmarks I can access.
