THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME

Dorothy and her "gang" were there for the pictures when we followed the Yellow Brick Road in Liberal, Kansas. 




The road is actually named Yellow Brick Rd. 
The sidewalks in front of the area are made of  yellow bricks. 


Dorothy's house sits on the grounds, but we didn't see the legs of the wicked witch sticking out anywhere!
We walked around the grounds of "OZ" ~ the buildings were not open.  
I've seen pictures on-line of others that visited here, so I know at one time this was an active museum stop.


After walking around and taking a few pictures we decided this town could really draw tourists in, if they played up the "OZ" factor more.  Stops like this give a nice break in the long drive to the west. 
The people of this town should visit the town of Metropolis, Illinois/where Superman is featured.  Lessons can be learned from Metropolis!
