Sandhills Thrill
Tourists from Holt
By MRS MERKIIJ. ANDERSON
CELJA Home again! But de
termined to engage in a more ex
tended vacation next time.
We traveled over 1.500 miles
sightseeing in southwestern Ne
braska, Kansas and parts of Col
orado.
Leaving Atkinson, we drove 350
miles to Benkleman the first day :
and stopped overnight with my
sister, Mrs. Marjorie Freeman.
My sister and other members of
her family accompanied Merrill
and me as we headed westward
toward Denver. Colo.
After covering about two hund
red miles without incident, the
blue haze of the Rocky mountains
lamed in the distance and in the
foreground, erupting from the flat
plain, we saw the foothills. Ma
jestic Pike’s peak, most celebrat
ed mountain in the United State's,
was sighted. A snowstorm was
raging at its 14,000-ft. summit but
at Denver a mile above sea lev
el shirtsleeves prevailed in the
85-degree weather.
We saw the new Air Force
academy at the outskirts of Colo
rado Springs. It is situated in a
v alley overshadowed by the color
ful Rockies.
After spending the night in Col
orado Springs, we continued on
our tour. Entering the famous
gateway to the Garden of the
Gods, we fixed our eyes on the
wonders of nature! Red and white
jagged rocks soared to 300-ft. from
the point where we stood We were
fascinated by Balancing rock and
Steamboat rock to mention only
two.
We paid our respects at the
beautiful memorial shrine of the
late Will Rogers, which was erec
ted by Spencer Penrose. It stands
high on Cheyenne mountain a
magnificent monument. Chimes
toll each half-hour the year-nround.
At Benkleman we looked in on
the Rock creek trout hatchery.
I jet me say in all sincerity I nev
er have seen the sandhills of Ne
braska more beautiful. They eould
not be passed without note. As
we drove along highway K3. which
has just recently bean surfaced
with black tot', we were awed by
the abundant grasses which cov
ered the hills that stretch for
miles and miles on either side of
the road The highway becomes a
welcome mat extended to the trav
elers who make their way into the
heart of the sandhills.
Dining at a cafeteria in a small
town in central Nebraska, we met
with typical western atmosphere.
From an adjoining booth we pick
ed up bits of conversation rela
tive to the stockman s interest,
round-up time, the climax of an
other year on the range, etc
And to think at one time these
same hills were considered but
waste land!
