Weekend in KC

For my birthday, Lynn had planned a weekend extravaganza: destination Kansas City Area.

We left last Thursday night to head up to my parents. They would be taking care of Nate on the weekend so that we could have some time alone together. We embarked out on Friday morning, heading through Kirksville thru Chillicothe, MO. Seems that Chillicothe is the original home of "Sliced Bread". Bread was first sold here sliced. Previously, I guess you sliced it at home.

We arrived in Kearney and toured the Jesse James Home.
Here's a pic of Lynn standing on the front porch.

We also went to the graveyard where James is buried and took this pic:

That night we arrived at the Western Way B&B. It was a good stay.

On Saturday we headed over to St. Joseph and saw the Pony Express Museum.
Here's a picture of me on the special saddle, I think it was called a mochilla.. unfortunately, you really can't see the saddle.

We also got to see this huge ball of "yarn".
