Harper Kansas Road Trip

Carin and I did a road trip to Harper, Kansas to meet her brothers and their wives,  Chris and Tia, Curt and Teresa.  Harper is in south central Kansas. 

They all inherited farmland when Carin’s mom passed away.  

We visited with the farmers that farm this land (the Pence family).  We toured the farms and got to see some of the equipment up close.  Quinn patiently explained how this equipment worked.  Carla drove us around to the various acreages.   It was fun to see these massive machines and where the farmed properties are. 

Wheat is up and soy is being planted now.  I think they told us the wheat harvest will start around June 10th. 

Both Carin’s mom and dad were originally from Kansas.  My dad was also born and raised, in his early life, in Kansas.

We did somewhere around 1,300-1,400 miles (2,092-2,253 kilometers) in just five days.

Itchy Boots – Noraly Schoenmaker

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEIs9nkveW9WmYtsOcJBwTg

I’ve been following a solo female motorcycle vlogger (video blogger), Noraly Schoenmaker, for five seasons. She is from the Netherlands (Utrecht, Holland). I first started following her when she was in the middle-east. At that time she had 67,000 YouTube subscribers. She is currently at 735,000. She makes YouTube videos for a living.

She started out in December 2018 in Delhi. I followed her as she rode through Asia, the middle-east, back to Europe, then from Patagonia to Peru (she had planned to go from Patagonia to Alaska, but …. COVID), then back to the Netherlands, around Scandinavia and now she is in South Africa.

You will see through her eyes, that people are the same everywhere in the world. People everywhere just want to live their lives. It is my opinion, the politicians that wish to divide us, not unite us. The world could be a much better place.

Many of the people on her journey are astounded that she is riding solo. It’s quite amazing. You really should check out her channel if you get a chance. If you can, start with with the first episode. Her episodes are generally 15-20 minutes long. This is a link to her current episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ot7f0gPrWuE&t=20s


She’s ridden Royal Enfield (Himalayans) and Hondas. She’s currently riding a Honda CRF250L for her South African journey.

I encourage you to subscribe to her channel.

It will be worth your time.
