Olathe, KS

July 19th

Another hilly ride through the center of Kansas ended in Olathe which is a suburb of Kansas City.  We were surprised with Chipotle for lunch which was amazing!  We had a police escort into the Heritage Center with a warm welcome from the city and the Counsel for People with Disabilities.  We explored the living museum which is the only current full running stagecoach stop on the Santa Fe Trail.  Olathe is a top 10 ranked community for people with disabilities to live.  The mayor of Olathe declared July 19th, 2009 as Push America Day!  The community has really hooked us up for our stay here!  We are staying at the Kansas School for the Deaf and all of us get our own beds!  They treated us to Texas Roadhouse for dinner and I got one of the juiciest steaks I have had in a long time.  It was an amazing dinner!  They have a huge day planned for us tomorrow on our day off so I called it an early night and made sure to catch up on some sleep.
