I lived for about 2 years (1971-73) in Shawnee Mission, Kansas . The three things I remember most vividly about my time there were: 1) 23 cents a gallon gas, 2) the fabulous quail hunting just north in Adair, Iowa (scene of the first daylight train robbery in the US thanks to Frank & Jesse and the boys), and the incredibly large pheasants just west and north of Adair in the endless cornfields around Littlefield. On our SD pheasant hunting trip a few years ago it was a big shock to see the giant power windmills marching over the landscape like feeding shorebirds in a meadow.
