While driving down an East Texas country road I spotted this scene. The autumn trees and the late afternoon sun made these golden bales of hay shine just a little bit more. Fortunately I had my camera with me. (c) James Q. Eddy Jr.

Set Off to See the Wizard and See the Farmhouse that Landed in Oz

J. Schafer, Kansas Public Radio

WAMEGO, Kan. (KPR) - For years, fans of the Wizard of Oz have been flocking to the OZ Museum in Wamego. If it's been a while since you visited, you might want to get there soon. An important prop from the 1939 movie is currently on display that's never been seen in public. And since it's on temporary loan from a private collection, who knows how long you have to see it in person. KPR's J. Schafer has more.

The OZ Museum in Wamego is open from 9am to 6pm Monday through Saturday and from noon to 6pm on Sunday.
