Teter Hill Eureka, KS

TeterVille Kansas,

Founded in the 1920's by Mr. James Teter

Teteville was once a Oil boom town Located in the Kansas Flint Hills.

Mr. Teter erected the rocks as land mark .

as the town grew the rocks were used in construction of 

building. the Boom town died out as the oil stop flowing 

now all that is left , a couple of old building foundations

and oil field scrap.

In 1954 a group of people erected

 the rocks that now stand there as tribute to

James Teter

This is the view looking South of Teter Rock

You can see for miles and Miles and Miles

You can't see them in photo's as they were off in the distance.

the Flinthills Plays host to thousands of Wild mustangs

that roam freely across this vast Kansas grassland

Teter Rock Stands all most 16' tall

It was cold and very windy while we were there

I must return and do a series of Sunset or sunrise Photo's

 If you are looking for a great day adventure 

then grab your camera and take lunch 

Teter Hill is close to all points in Central kansas.

Riverside Park and Ralph Mitchell Zoo

Riverside Park, 1736 N 5th St, Independence, KS 67301

A few months ago on a lazy Sunday afternoon we drove

to Independence Ks. to the Ralph Mitchell Zoo

 This is a fun zoo to visit
they have a variety of animals

I like the Monkey House 

it set inside a moat with 

a nice size fence the surrounds the enclosure. 

This poor Donkey looks like he has been 

used up. 

I have never seen a sway back as bad as this.

There are a variety of Birds to see

The Fox was asleep 

There was a pair of raccoon's  having fun in the sun

Then the mountain lion 

and we can't forget the bear

Santa Fe Lake Augusta Ks.

Santa Fe Lake 

Augusta Kansas

Located a short drive  from Augusta Kansas

you will find a small almost forgotten Lake

Santa Fe Lake is the perfect lake for that family outing

Or that Sunday afternoon boat ride.

The wildlife is very diverse,

 depending on the time of year

You will a great variety of waterfowl

There are Whitetail  Deer that roam the woods 

along with smaller animals.

If you enjoy watching the sun set over water 

there is no better place than Santa Fe Lake
