A neighbor told me about a rope bridge on the nature trail at the Kansas State Historical Society, Topeka, KS, at the site of the old Potawatomi Indian Mission—a building recently closed because of fiscal restraints. (So sad. Hope for reopening.) I searched for the bridge.

I started by parking in the southwest corner of the parking lot for an evening walk. I walked west to the one-room school. The path turned north, and my adventure began. I was fascinated by all I saw as I traveled only a part of the several miles of nature trail in the area.
