The Flint Hills of Kansas
Kansas is, as we all know, mostly flat plains. To the east are famous locales such as Topeka and Kansas City (the Kansas side of town). To the west lie infamous wild-west locales such as Dodge City. In the middle, though, is the quiet, rolling terrain of the Flint Hills. It is a land where the ubiquitous American corn and beans, prevalent elsewhere in this middle of the midwest states, yield to grasslands and cattle.
