Along US-400 between Wichita and Dodge City just west of Mullinville, Kansas, our eyes popped. We’d stumbled upon the folk art of Mullinville native M.T.Liggett who passed away in August 2017. His bizarre art is celebrated in Atlas Obscura and Roadside America. Although the majority of his work is clustered here on the prairie, he gained such national fame that his obituary appeared in the New York Times and trustees were appointed to preserve his artwork for the future.

After a guided bus tour of the City of Belfast we visited the Titanic Belfast Museum located at the Harlan & Wolff shipyard where the great ship was built.
