Where the hell do they row in the middle of Kansas?

First, Lawrence, Kansas is not in the middle of Kansas. It is in
northeastern Kansas.

Second, the Kaw River in the Lawrence area accommodates all manner of
small boats and at higher water levels, is interestingly navigable. It's
also well-known for orgiastic sandbar parties.

Third, there's a lake a little west of Lawrence that quite suitable for
crew. Probably larger than the lakes on which you run your overpowered
bass boats.


Well how about that - I guess you told me huh?

Consider me chastised - you obviously have the area around Leavenworth
down cold.

Which, somehow, figures.

Uh...Lawrence is west of Kansas city, but not far. Leavenworth is north
of KC. I visited the pen at Leavenworth to cover a college graduation
ceremony

If you want central Kansas, you might find Great Bend, KS, of interest.
In the good old days, the KC Star owed the Great Bend Tribune, and the
threat from the city editor was that if you ****ed up a big story, he'd
send you out to the Tribune to do penance.

Thanks to the Star's desire to cover its geo area as completely as
possible, we reporters got to travel far and wide in Kansas, Missouri,
Oklahoma and Nebraska. One of my favorite far-away places in Kansas was
Liberal, down in the SW corner. You'd like it...pretty good airplane museum.

You apparently haven't spent much time out there - Kansas, Missouri,
Nebraska, Oklahoma. Many interesting places and people.
