We finally come to the Kansas, I have been eager to blog about this state. Home of the Washburn University Ichabod's and rolling plains filled with wheat fields. Kansas is the home of many things such as Kansas is known as the windiest state in the country, this is due to its flat surfaces. On a more impressive note, Kansas is the home of Amelia Earhart. In 1924 Earhart was the first woman in America that was granted a pilot license. Amelia was born in 1987 in Atchison, Kansas. Amelia was to be the first woman to fly all the way over the Atlantic Ocean which did not work out for her. Devastating enough, she ended up not making the journey and ended up missing. Amelia will be forever a "Kansas Great."
