For the scenic route, why not drop down I25 along the Big Horns of WY  
and into Colorado and pick up I70 in Denver. I know that from the  
Rockies to Missouri, is a whole lotta nuttin to look at, so take the  
scenic route to Kansas ;-)

(done the Arkansas to Wyoming drive more than once whilst going to  
school in Fayetteville)
