790 Mile Drive to Hays, Kansas
Through amber waves of grain, traversing five states, with multiple stops, we made it to our evening's destination- Hays, KS.
Hays was a rough and tough town in its early years, at one time sporting 37 liquor establishments. Many notable people lived here, including the Custers and the 7th Cavalry, Will Bill Hickok, and William F. Cody, who acquired his nickname of Buffalo Bill by furnishing buffalo to feed the railroad workers in Hays.
Today it is a center for education, business and culture for Western Kansas and 790 miles closer to home.
