You have really gotten my ire up. This is my first time on this website, but I can tell you, you need to quit your put-downs of what appears to be any part of Kansas except your "beloved Wichita." I am quite sure there is plenty of racism in Wichita and Sedgwick County. Maybe you need to clean up your own backyard first.
I was raised in Washington County and my Great Grandfather homesteaded in the Hanover area. He worked at the Hollenberg Ranch during the time of the Pony Express. Consequently the Hollenberg Ranch and the Pony Express are very dear to my heart. My Grandfather rode in the original re-ride of the Pony Express and my Father rode for many years in the annual re-rides of the Pony Express. The Hanover area is extremely proud of the fact that we have the only original, and I believe still considered, unaltered station on the entire Pony Express Route. Maybe you should engage in some history lessons about the great state of Kansas before you go knocking the Pony Express Riders.
