I finished reading "The Children"s Blizzard" a few weeks ago and am thinking of taking a trip across the mid-west following the back roads. I"m thinking of taking Hwy 3 across Iowa and then swinging up into Nebraska and SD. I"d like to see the Sand Hills and any patches of original prairie. I plan to stop at the Willa cather Preserve near Red Cloud; her novels made the prairie come alive. I have a friend in Kansas (Larned) and one in Oklahma (Claremore) that I"d like to see if my money holds out. I"ve always wanted to see the grain harvest. When is the best time to go? I"m torn between summer and fall; I could hunt in the fall but will miss the grain harvest. Any thoughts?
