Burlingame History

Please visit the Schyler Museum. It holds lots of interesting artifacts %26amp; historic items of Burlingames past. Burlingame was started as a mining town. Of course it is known as the crossing of both Santa Fe Trail %26amp; Santa Fe Railroad. ';Burlingame, where rail crosses trail.';





The streets of Burlingame are unique in that they are made of brick %26amp; we park in the middle and on either side. This was for the wagons of long ago.





There are many abandoned coal mines in the area. A country drive will take you past many old school/churches, outlines of the Fort, wagon trails and many find old arrowheads.





The restaurant in Burlingame, besides being one of the best around, has many pictures of history and some of the old coal miners equipment.



Burlingame History


Yes the Museum is a nice place to visit. Many interesting things.The wide main street of Burlingame has been maimed in that it has many yellow lines and no one knows where to park anymore. The grocery store closed, the liquor store closed, the auto. center is moving, the flower shop shut down, the newspaper will probably be moving if not already, and there is nothing AT ALL for young people to do in Burlingame! Uhh, that leaves a hardware store, a library and a convenience store. WOW!!!!

  • Mid Aerica Air Museum

    I want information about the Mid America Air Museum. Thanks



    Mid Aerica Air Museum


    Hey I just got your message. MAAM is well worth seeing. They have over 102 airplanes and getting more all the time. They just got a Beach Starship and are reassembling it as I am typing this message. There are so many planes in the museum I call my favorite, but I would have to say the Iron Butterfly C45, F14, T38, F4u Corsair, F86,TBM, Twin Navion, Bobcat, S2B Sub Tracker, Bronco and Tiny the smallest by plane got to be a start.


    The museum has a new director that came from the Linburg museum and is doing wonderful things for the museum. I live close by and get to take in all the activities. Which by the way, They have had more activities in the last 3 months then they have in 4 years.


    Come see, maybe I will be available to take you for a tour.

    Lyddon Aero Service

    I have flown into Liberal, Garden City, and Dodge City with my 172 Cessna. Lyddon Aero Service was the best FBO with the best and friendly service of the three Cities.





    There is also a connecting flight several times a day with United%26#39;s 1900 twins that is not mentioned in the air service section of this site.





    Lyddon%26#39;s offer a charter service that beats any around- hands down. They are ready to fly when you are. I did use their charter service. They did what they were asked to do, no fooling around and no surprises. I would use them again, with pleasure.



    Lyddon Aero Service


    Okay I was wrong. They do mention connecting flights to Liberal in the Flights to Liberal section.

    Indoor Water Parks

    Does anybody know anything about an indoor water park/hotel in the Kansas City area?



    Indoor Water Parks


    It%26#39;s called the Great Wolf Lodge [GWL]. From the outside it looks like a huge log cabin. Water park is indoors. You must be a guest at the hotel to use the water park.





    GWL is very easy to get to. It%26#39;s at I-435 %26amp; I-70, in Kansas City, Kansas [from Neb. take I-29 to I-435 South and avoid downtown traffic].





    GWL is in the Village West Shopping Center. Village West is home of the Kansas Speeday [NASCAR %26amp; Indy Cars], Cabela%26#39;s, Nebraska Furniture Mart, T-Bones minor league baseball, and about a dozen resturants [in all price ranges].





    GWL is about 20 minutes West of downtown Kansas City.





    I have never stated their, but am told the weekend packages are very afforable!





    Have fun.



    Indoor Water Parks


    The earlier post is right, it%26#39;s easy to get to.


    We live in the area, so my daughter has been to several b-day sleepovers there ( the new exotic party I guess). I have been in to see the rooms. For a family with younger kids it is perfect-- queen bed for parents and a %26#39;bunk%26#39; area off of the main room with bunk beds and kid%26#39;s tv. The hotel has a P. Hut express so you can get personal pan pizzas or larger anytime, plus more food now that it%26#39;s been open longer. Several restaurants in the area if you want to go out for fresh air.


    If the waterpark is busy at all, it%26#39;s very noisy-- high pitch sqwueels of little kids, but the set-up is very nice.


    Good winter getaway.
