KC

Parkville, MO downtown
A couple of weeks ago, Mom and I went to Kansas City.  I had a seminar to go to, so I could obtain some continuing education credits, to keep my registry updated.  The seminar was at the University of Kansas Med Center. Nice facilities and good seminar!  I booked a room at the Argosy Casino in northwest KC.  Nice rooms and very convenient for restaurants for Mom, as she would be without a car.
We checked out the area and found a little town called Parkville, not to far from the hotel. Nice little touristy town. We ate at Franks Italian Restaurant-Shrimp Scampi Linguine-Very Good!   Then we went north a little ways and found the Zona Rosa Mall. Very Large outdoor Mall! There were lots of people, because they were having a Beerfest, in the commons area. We didn't taste any beer, but we did do a little shopping.
It was so nice that it all (except Med Center) was in Northwest KC area. Very convenient!
Poor Vel had to stay "back at the ranch" with the dogs! I think she was a little jealous!
