Dodge City, Kansas

The TV series “Gunsmoke” was described as a show where  “Marshal Matt Dillon keeps the peace in the rough and tumble Dodge City”. It had a span of twenty years from 1955 to 1975. It started in black and white and ended up in color and was a certainly a very popular show on Monday nights. We were very excited that we were driving to Dodge City, to visit that famous place and to pick up father and Kai. It was the first English TV series I followed. The images of these two below would be forever in my mind: gunsmaokw  Yes, they were young once!

Dodge City was a long way from Kansas City. When we finally got there, the downtown area of Dodge City was  disappointing. Just one street and that was it!
