Every time I visit my friends and relatives on the East Coast the question I am being asked the most is “when will you finally move here”. I have to admit that it’s a pretty tempting idea that ocasionally visits me since I moved to Kansas City almost 16 years ago.
After all they have things like:
Broadway
Nathan’s Hot Dogs and PotatoE Balls:
Skyline, Empire State Building and The Statue of Liberty
Ocean with $2,000,000 condos facing it.
Mermaids
Russian Stores and Restaurants
People who mastered parallel parking
So why do I come home every time to the city that doesn’t have any of it? Maybe that’s the reason – it doesn’t have any of it.
I was going to make a moby dick joke about the mermaid, but that would be tacky. Glad to see you came out of hiatus to post something. Great pics, hopefully more to come. Welcome home.
meesha – Having lived in the east for a few years, I’d put it like this. If you are “one in a million”…then there are eight of you in New York.
Definitely need better mermaids.
Awesome parking photo.
Gotta love a real estate market where a seven-digit purchase price doesn’t get you a yard.
There are a lot of places that are a great place to visit, but … well you know.
By the way, speaking of places to visit, just got back from Omaha and a trip to their zoo. One of the best zoos I’ve been to. Your daughter will love it and only 3 hours away.
We went to Omaha zoo few years ago during the strike. I still like St.Louis better for some reason, San Diego is not bad at all. During this trip we went to a small zoo somewhere in Jersey, it was almost like Deanna Rose Farm here in KC.
