Kansas City


Sunday, 4/27 I went to a work conference in Kansas City, MO. A couple of my coworkers also went (one being Grover). We flew in on Sunday, and had planned to check out the city a bit. Kansas city is known for its fountains, steaks and BBQ. So we decided that we were going to take pictures and share with you some of the steaks and BBQ we had while there.

These were taken at The Plaza. It was about 52 degrees there and I was very thankful I took my jacket. :0) We had an opportunity to walk around and check out the scenery. Only bummer was that all the shops close early there for some reason...by 6 o'clock they were all closed except the restaurants. Go figure? Doesn't make much sense to me, but that's the way it is.



This is a fabulous fountain located in a park right at the outskirts of the plaza. It's an amazing park. It always has lots of activity going on, many kids flying their kites, etc. It's very, very pretty. Plus its got these remarkable tulip flower beds. There were also these incredible trees full of lavender type colored flowers....maybe cherry blossoms...not quite sure.




The city is also full of all different types of
statues. So, we decided we'd have a little
bit of fun and "strike-a-pose" with some of them.


We also saw street performer, who enlightened us with quite the juggling performance. :-)
