straight shot west from there\u2026 I was surprised to find that McPherson is some what of a pipeline cross-roads like Cushing\u2026 Although not a huge storage depot like Cushing it did have way more smaller pipelines crossing out west of town\u2026 we passed multiple pipeline stations for many miles west, almost all the way to Lyons, Ks\u2026 <\/p>\n<p><a

normal Interstate routes and get off the \u201cbeaten\u201d path\u2026 well we were still on paved roads and they were still beaten pretty good but way less traffic out this way,&#160;&#160; Granted it was a little bit longer in time, but fewer miles.&#160; the time element comes because you have to slow down a lot for towns and you are not supposed to drive 75+ on the 2 lane roads\u2026 We set the cruise at 68 and did really well, in fact I think our time from end to end was nearly the same if not less and we had multiple stops \"And Now the Rest of the Story - \"New Kansas road
