Marysville, Ks

Marysville, Ks is a town of about 3000 situated on the Pony Express Hwy. There are a few motels, a couple of gas stations a couple of churches, etc. It is in the land of OZ and yes Dorothy you are home.  Kansas was the state farthest toward the west to fight with the union.  In modern day Kansas has been a red state.  There is corn and wheat is in the fields which have been in a family for years.  I am ready to be home  to take care of some loose ends, work on my house and put some of the things I have learned down on paper.  I was headed to St Joseph when I was looking at the buildings as I passed through the town.
On the left side was a movie theater with the first movie The Butler.  As I was to find out, the appalo3 was formerly a church recreational facility and there is a pool on the lower level. I found this out by deciding to stop in Marysville.  I checked into the local Motel,  Oak Tree Inn which was $62 which includes breakfast.  The Apollo is a very large theater and for $12 you are admitted, get a bottomless pop corn, and a cold drink.
The movie was my life starting with the Nixon years and the first sit ins. I so remember the hoses on the children.....it was a Sunday and Georgette and I had a small apt in Rochester.  That moved me. The movie is very well done. The acting was great.  And I will remember Marysville.
