We began our Katy Trail vacation here in Pilot Grove. I (Lora) have always wanted to ride the bridge over I-70. :o) We didn't stay in Pilot Grove but at the Iron Horse Hotel in nearby Blackwater. This hotel is a delightful experience. It has RR themed rooms and is right next to the tracks. It also houses the Iron Horse Restaurant, a very nice dining establishment in the "middle of nowhere." The sweet potato chips are amazing!
