The Katy Trail

As usual, we were up and underway at the crack of noon.  We went for a ride on the Katy Trail along the Missouri.
 No, this not I70; but that is the I70 overpass up ahead.
The trail is supposed to go to Kansas; we didn't confirm that.

Then we walked the historic Main St.  Site of the first capitol during the transition to statehood.
 This part of the trail has a bunch of Lewis & Clark stuff, so we'll come back and check it out.  They have some of the type of boats they used; pictures to follow.
Yes there's room for two adults and two yappy dogs.

Weather's supposed to be good tomorrow, so we'll go again.
