KANORADO, KANSAS! Pictures of Buildings and Scenery On The Kansas/Colorado Border September 2005
|
Kanorado, Kansas! You can't miss it on Interstate 70 at the Kansas/Colorado border. Exit 1 baby! :) |
|
I stopped by after driving across Kansas starting in Olathe.
Below is all of my Kansas content: Fort Scott, Kansas Across Colorado Bike Ride (Start at Kansas State Line) Kansas Discussion Forum |
|
I spotted this nice-looking tractor in someone's Kanorado front yard. |
|
This is definitely a quiet town folks! From top to bottom, that's an old abandoned building, the former Kanorado Cash Store and Town Hall! :)

Old Photos From My Visit To Kanorado In December 2000
 |
I got a shot of the Kansas state sign. By the way, if you've ever driven across the entire state of Kansas, I think you need to share your story or a unique experience on the Kansas Discussion Forum! ;) |
 |
During this visit, I went to the post office to ask where town hall was, and to my surprise, the locals were having a Christmas party at the post office! They even had goodies and stuff! |
 |
I was standing by the west side of town and looking west. I would estimate somewhere past that tractor is the Colorado border. |
 |
This was a neat experience! While mingling at the post office party,
I spoke of how the museum across the street was closed. Well, this friendly local told me she has a key to get in there,
and so we visited the museum! Kanorado is definitely a friendly small town!
In the top right photo,
I actually jumped inside the 100-year-old caboose. Also, I was told the structure in the bottom photo was a
temporary holding cell for criminals in the old days. Wow! |
 |
And there she is ... Hazel Estes, the mayor and chief executive of the greatest town in all of Kansas! I actually drove to Goodland to meet her where she works and I really appreciated her spending some time in conversation with me. Thank you Hazel! :) |
