This year has been terrible for drought, and the corn is shriveling up in the fields

Storm shelters like these are a reminder of how deadly Kansas weather can become!

Next we went shopping at Bass Pro Shops! It is an amazing place with just about anything you can imagine for outdoor sports. We bought 8 life jackets, so the host family can go rafting!

The host family took me to the Allen County Fair! We saw the livestock, the baby barn, and the amazing fair entries, ranging from vegetables to photography to baking to clothing construction.

The local community garden has suffered from the drought, too. The only plants that stayed green had a lot of extra water!

Today, the host family took me on a huge road trip! Our first stop for the day was at the National Fish Hatchery. We enjoyed the exhibits, then went outside to feed the fish. There was only one pond filled, and a family of ducks came to see the excitement!

The next stop was at the Lives Under Construction Ranch charity thrift shop, then on to Lives Under Construction Ranch! We completed our debriefing, then got to see what the boys on the ranch do during the summer camp. They help feed the animals, water trees, and camp out on the weekends!

Vriendje enjoyed visiting the local farmer's market! The pepper tasting was fun, but the Thai peppers were sure hot!

Vriendje decided that hedgehogs are really cute, even if three were showing the prickly part of their personality!
