Going to Kansas.....



Gonna do some travelin' to the Sunflower State this weekend. Visit my dad in Ottawa, near Kansas City. My mom lives south of there in Fort Scott where I sorta kinda grew up. Might take a drive down there and show DH and Lady K where I went to junior and senior high school and spent time on my grandparents' farm. We'll see how much time we have.
I know we are going to Paola KS to The BBQ Shack http://www.thebbqshack.com/ after we saw it on Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives (love that Guy Fieri). Dad's already checked it out with Mom, they approve. Dad took my sister and her fam....they thumbs upped it too. So...off we go to see the hub-bub....bub....
Bringing some 'throws' from some of our plants for Dad's garden, we'll hang in the pool he has now, just chill for a couple of days.
Looking forward to seeing the new place and how he's settled in.
