The Friends of the C&TS held a Midwest meeting at the Hesston Steam Museum last weekend. Ted Rita, General Manager, and his volunteers were our gracious hosts. They put on quite a show. My wife and I had a great time. Many thanks to Bob and Holly Ross, Fred Springer and his wife and Tim Tennant for putting this together. If you are in the area, you really should check them out.
