Somewhere in KS....

....isn't there a neat little rwy where you land and then taxi down the street to the restaurant/B&B???

After Gaston's, I'm going to my sister's in Topeka, and I wanted to do a fun day trip. If I've got the above wrong, any ideas that would be fun for a non-pilot pax......and the pilot, too?

Fun place. I've got pictures of the Citabria at Beaumont somewhere. You just have to watch that you don't hit the wing on the stop sign before you cross Main Street.

I thought about it. But, I think we are going to ease into the day....maybe start off in the hot tub. It will probably take us at least 1:20 to get there. And Tom needs to stop along the way to sign off a student for his cross county.

Damn, Diana beat me to it. That's definitely Beaumont...great food and generous portions there. It's been a while, but I remember having a good breakfast the next day, too.
