Well, wait, is Kansas in the heartland, or more like the pelvis? Whatever, it&#8217;s a weird-ass place, probably one the strangest I&#8217;ve ever gone to on purpose. I was there for a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alliancewake.com\/wake\/fooshee-tops-monster-energy-triple-crown-at-kwc\/\" target=\"_blank\">wakeboard event<\/a> at a cable park on a dead end road. In between where we stayed and the park was miles of mid-scale chain restaurants and big box stores, so I guess it was pretty much like anywhere else in America. I like to really immerse myself in the culture of a place though, so I managed to eat at Applebees, Old Chicago, Ruby Tuesdays, Chipotle and Hooters. Well technically we didn&#8217;t eat so much at Hooters as begin what would become a hangover I won&#8217;t soon live down. But really the most notable part of my trip to Kansas was a strip club called the Double Wide. As the name implies, it was a double wide trailer, and that&#8217;s all you really need to know. Now here are a\u00a0 couple random pictures from my trip Kansas so that you never have to go there yourself (although please note I spent my entire time at a wakeboard contest, so subject matter was somewhat limited.)<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-1201\" href=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/?attachment_id=1201\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1201\" title=\"kcdragonfly\" src=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/kcdragonfly.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/kcdragonfly.jpg 550w, https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/kcdragonfly-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kansas bugs<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-1202\" href=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/?attachment_id=1202\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1202\" title=\"kcgrass\" src=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/kcgrass.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"550\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/kcgrass.jpg 550w, https:\/\/brookegeery.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/kcgrass-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kansas grass<\/p>\n<p>If you wanna see more sweet wakeboard shots, check out the full gallery <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alliancewake.com\/wake\/kcw-monster-energy-triple-crown-gallery\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Archives My most recent trip took me to the heartland of America.
