In this episode we are going to give some tips on what to see in Dodge City, Kansas, the "Wickedest Little City in America." On our route back across the heartland of the United States, we decided to make a stop in a historical little western town, Dodge City. We found this to be a very cool stop in the middle of our great country. We all love wild west history and Dodge City is full of it, even if much of it has been romanticized and exaggerated over the last few decades. In this video, we share our ride around the city on a trolley tour, where we chose the 9am tour and had the trolley to ourselves. Our driver/tour guide was great and full of knowledge of his town. Come along with us on this trolley to learn more about this great, wild west town.
Not only is Dodge City famous for it's own western history with cowboys, outlaws, and such, it is also famous for being a model town for the show, Gunsmoke starring James Arness as Sheriff Matt Dillon. There is even a statue downtown honoring Arness and Ms. Kitty and even Festus are noted in the museum downtown (we will show you that in our next episode). We stayed at a great place, Gunsmoke RV Park located right at the edge of town. It had a pool, laundry room, playground, and good size sites. We definitely recommend it if you are in the area. It's gated and a Good Sam affiliated park.

We are a family of 4 who loves to travel. In 2019, we bought a 30 ft. travel trailer and decided to make our dreams happen by getting out on the road. We have always LOVED traveling and now seeing our world on the road has given us opportunities to see more and make memories as a family. We are teachers and are blessed to have the same "vacation" schedule, so we make the most of it with our kids by being both weekend warriors and "school schedule" traveling--We call ourselves part-timers. We hope to share what we learn while exploring this beautiful world around us and inspire you to get out and see it, too.
