Kansas man fulfills dream, buys property that Santa Fe trail passes through

Before there was an Interstate 40, before Route 66 was built, Americans took the Santa Fe Trail to New Mexico. The Wichita Eagle's Beccy Tanner weaves history and a man's dream to own a piece of the storied trail into a riveting article--one of the best I've read in some time.

This is the kind of work the mainstream media should be producing on a regular basis.
