In case you’re wondering why blogging is so light today (and will be tomorrow, too), it’s because I’m in Kansas City — well, actually Overland Park, Kansas. I couldn’t tell you ahead of time because I was coming out here for a surprise anniversary party for my aunt and uncle. They’re celebrating their 25th anniversary this month! Well, they were very surprised and a good time was had by all.
I’ll be driving back tomorrow, so it will be another light posting day. Also, the Dead Sea Scrolls are on display at Union Station in KC…. If they’re open tomorrow, I might have to take a look at that exhibit!
Feel free to consider this an “open thread” and comment on anything you want while I’m gone.
Advice from someone who travels that route quite often: Don’t go through St.Louis. Get off I70 at Kingdom City and take Hwy54 North towards Mexico, Mo. Not only will it lower your blood pressure, it will save you a ton of travel time. Stay on 54 until you hit I72 near Pittsfield, Il. Take I72 east to Springfield.
**Don’t speed through Curryville**
