It isn’t easy to wear the “I’m from Kansas” label with pride. Cows, tornadoes and the Wizard of Oz may not be as boast-worthy as New York’s skyscrapers or California’s beaches, but I sought out some Kansas oddities and attractions worth bragging about. No other state has the world’s largest ball of twine, or the second largest electric shovel. And there’s definitely nowhere else with a museum dedicated entirely to barbed wire. If you find yourself bored over the upcoming three-day weekend or are looking for unique ways to spend your Thanksgiving break, fill up the gas tank, open Google Maps and discover a few of Kansas’s hidden gems.
