    At Pillsbury crossing we waded out in the water to take pictures of the waterfall. It is a little off the beaten path for sure but worth the trouble to find.

    Goodnow House is next door to the history museum. Tours are scheduled in the museum. I did not get to take a tour of the Goodnow house because I was only there for the day and ran out of time. I will have to count on my friend 'HNS' from Manhattan to tell me about it some time.

    Kansas State University has an excellent athletic program and an on going rivalry with Kansas University of Lawrence. The Beach Museum of Art, McCain Auditorium, Nichols Theatre, and the 12 acre Kansas State University Gardens are also there.

    Manhattan Town Center is one of many places to shop. I liked this mall because of the way the design of it had incorporated features of the town in the entry way. It seems like part of the down town from this angle. For once a mall has helped revitalize the old down town area of a city.

    My Becky and the Tuttle Creek Dam. The Dam measures 7,500 feet long and 157 feet high. During periods of rain the lake will be over 50,000 acres in size. Stop by the visitor center on highway 13 to find out about sailing, boating, fishing, camping, hiking, off roading, and the watchable wildlife around the lake.

    On June 23rd, 2001 my wife and I returned to the 'Little Apple' for a music concert. It is a huge 3 day event with new great bands every two hours. I've added a travelogue about the 'Country Stampede' at Tuttle Creek if you are interested.

    Riley County Courthouse in the old down town area of Manhattan. It is closed on weekends so I did not go inside.

    Riley County Historical Museum is at 2005 Claflin Road. I like history a lot so this was a place I had to stop at.

    The visitor bureau is across the street from the library and the courthouse at 501 Poyntz. I was there on a Saturday and it was not open so I did not get much help from them. They have a web site at www.manhattan.org .
