OK folks, after a few days trying to get computers replaced, realigned and working, I'm back. I am really going to try to keep this somewhat timely. Our biggest adventure so far has been the weather. Our trip from McAlester OK to Kansas City was tentatively planned with an overnite stop in Joplin, MO. We decided that it was early enough in the day to travel on to KC. That was the evening the tornado hit Joplin. Never have I been so glad to have a longer travel day.
While we were in McAlester, we decided to stay for the 'Italian Festival'. There was to be a big Italian feed set up, but it wasn't operating while we were there. It would have been the only Italian thing we saw. There were a lot of vendors set up with crafts, etc, and a sort of carnival, but that was it. Live and learn.
Kansas City has been a good visit. There's really a lot to see and do here, and if you're really unlucky, you can spend some time in the storm shelter while tornadoes touch down in several places in the county near your RV Park. At least there ARE storm shelters!
There are also fabulous free Museums, and at Union Station Pat got to see the Diana Exhibit. Yesterday was for visiting a couple of Farmer's Markets and lunch at an Irish Pub.
Hopefully there will be pictures in the next edition, stick around and see.
