I will be traveling from Kansas City, KS to Denver, CO. Good place to stop overnight about halfway?
Would like nice motels and local/family owned restaurants. Also, interesting places to see that show the local culture. Any thoughts?

Answer 1 :
Alabama. Maybe Decatur
Answer 2 :
Well, its only like a 9 hour drive, so if you leave in the morning, shouldn't need a motel.
Answer 3 :
If you were going through Nebraska we have Buffalo Bills House and the worlds largest rail yard. If you have a GPS try geocaching your way there.
Answer 4 :
there's not a heck of a lot out that way on 70 closest I can think of is Hays ks, Just about halfway, there are motels there and a state prison. If I were you, I'd cut north from KC on I-29 or US75 to US 36 drive across that way on the smaller road, but better drive and towns about every 40 miles and stop at Belleville or west of there. much nicer drive and the 80 miles or so it cuts off more than makes up for the slower speeds. And driving Kansas across 70 is the most mind numbing experience you'll ever have in your life... until you take 80 across Nebraska
Answer 5 :
Wakeeny, KS. Although I doubt it's very interesting. Really I would get up early and drive in one day.
Answer 6 :
Hays is the halfway point, so it could be good to stop there. I went to college there, and there are a few good restaurants....Whisky Creek is a pretty good bbq place. Not a whole lot to do there though!
