KC Weekend - Final Post

So, dearhearts, to recap our visit thus far to Kansas City:  we ate, visited the Kansas City Public Library, ate, visited the used bookstore, and ate (we also sat in a great many cars which we had no intention of buying and a couple with potential).  So, what to do on our last day?  We were tired of eating out, so it was a fend for yourself day in ( Read more... )

I always get teased by my hubby about my "sympathy braking", where I shove my foot at the floorboards to help slow down the car when he is driving.

This reminds me of our family vacations. Last summer, we were going through Springfield, MO, and missed a tornado by 5 minutes or less.

Then, on our recent Cincinnati trip (which I forgot to do the 2nd and 3rd posts about), one of our ideas turned out to be something that looked good in the tourism book, but was disappointing in person. So, we all went to Barnes & Nobles and bought books and drank Starbucks.

It looks like you had a great time (love the front of the library building!) and yikes! That's some serious rain to have to drive through!

It was raining so hard that visibility was practically zero. We would have pulled off the side of the road, but we were concerned we would be hit. It seemed safer to keep moving. Besides there were flash floods, and it seemed best to stay on the road and try to drive out of it.
