Both towns are about 25 minutes away
They both have some tourist sites

Lindsboyg is a great little spot for brunch, I hear their not early risers!

[slick4x4]

Lindsborg has deep Swedish roots
Lots of Johnsons, Olsons, Swensons, Petersons ........

Abilene was a cowtown from the days when Marshall Dillon kicked butt
I know some crazy sonofaguns over there... I'm sure they have
Gunslinger blood in them from great grandfathers ....

Both towns have some nice history & tourist interest

ok you have my attention now

[Alan Mclennan]

yes we visited Abilene in 2012 and 2014, and the truck was there both times, it had gone up in price a bit, but due to the size, weight and cost to ship, I tucked it back in to the back of a low shelf for safe keeping for our next return, you guys would love it!, it`s a stake bed truck and in fairly good nic,,,
Pat, I have contacted the local Police and have had you banned from the town till August 2016, just to make it fairer on the rest of us !!

[Alan Mclennan]

Pat, you haven`t mentioned the Abilene "Greyhound Hall of Fame", I hear they have a great collection of buses that had broken time records and seating capacities ....

Never rode on a greyhound bus either...

I did take Colleen to the bus stop... She rode down to Oklahoma to see a friend

But she came back

How about the Merry go round at the heritage centre, the girls will like that!

[slick4x4]

can i bring my shot gun?

I'm not sure, but I think you have to have a gun , just to get into Kansas....
If no gun.... Be sure your chewing tobacco & have some empty beer cans in
The bed of your truck , while wearing a cap with a seed dealer logo

[Alan Mclennan]

I`ll be right, but they had sold out of the corn ones tho!
