We've made it to Tribune, KS which is just over the mountain time zone line. Apparently, there is a sliver of KS that is in the mountain time zone. Most of these towns accommodate cyclists and let them swim in the pool for free and use the showers. KS loves pools and water slides. It's been really helping to cope with the heat in the afternoon. But nobody bothers us when we camp in the park, except on the fourth when EVERYONE sets off fireworks. There were fireworks Everywhere! I dont think I'll ever have the chance again to bike through a town when thats going on again but it was really cool. It didn't help us getting to sleep though. Soon enough we'll be in CO, probably tomorrow. And hopefully it will be just as awesome as KS has been. The headwind still sucks, though, and the gradual uphill all the way through western KS. But other than that it's awesome!
