Kansas  

Picture: Council Grove, located on the Santa Fe Trail is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. There are many historic buildings and points of interest, including Hays House Restaurant, Madonna of the Trail, and the Last Chance Store, last chance to purchase supplies before heading west in wagons on the Santa Fe Trail.

These cards were sent by Rose who is based in Council Grove and I would like to thank her for the quick response to my request for cards. Its also nice to get cards from places I have never heard of, it is quite the education.
