I drive hwy 80 between Montgomery and Selma fairly often. I've always thought how some of that landscape reminds me of Kansas. I never knew that was how a lot of the state looked naturally.
People don't think of Buffalo being in the Southeast but they were here. Not in the numbers of the Great Plains, but especially in places like Kentucky they were plentiful. Buffalo Trace Bourbon is not named that just because it's a cool name. Some modern highways still follow the paths of old buffalo traces in the southeast and most of those eventually led to a mineral lick somewhere.
