I got up early this morning and decided to go and see the Cahokia Mounds. It was pretty impressive to see what the Cahokia community was able to build. I highly recommend it if you're into history. You can even see The Arch in St. Louis at the top.

On the way to Houston. We made a quick stop by at the Mount Carmel Center, which is the location where the siege took place between the ATF and David Koresh and the Branch Davidians back in 1993. This led to the deaths of four ATF agents and 82 members of the Davidians. Pretty somber feeling, especially seeing the remnants of the bus where several children perished from smoke inhalation.

The Keeper of the Plains is a 44-foot tall steel sculpture standing at the point where the Big and Little Arkansas rivers join together in downtown Wichita. This land between the two rivers is sacred ground to the Native American people and is also home to the Mid-America All-Indian Museum. The American Indian sculpture was created by Wichitan and Native American artist Blackbear Bosin (1921-1980). This icon of Wichita was erected on May 18, 1974 to celebrate the United States Bi-centennial and has kept a watchful eye on the city ever since.

We visited Strataca. It's a salt mine museum in Hutchinson, Kansas, United States. It was previously known as the Kansas Underground Salt Museum. The museum is built within one of the world's largest deposits of rock salt, formed 275 million years ago, and provides the opportunity to go 650 feet (200 m) beneath the Earth's surface. Also a storage place for film and movie props. Where should I explore next?

Making more trips is one of my objectives for 2023. While doing this, I reasoned, why not shoot pictures, movies, and other kinds of media to share the locations I visit with others.
