Wishing For Warmer Weather

This video was taken last May along the ocean front walk in Ogunquit, MN. The day before had been 70's and we were on the beach, but this little resort town was great to get away to for a pre-season weekend. And it reminds me that...

I'm really, really, really, really looking forward to:

• Vacation
• Spring
• The Ocean

I'm so sick and tired of winter that I can't be more articulate than that.

(This also proves I will most likely not be a television presenter on the Travel Channel anytime soon!)

When we saw the sky coming up around the north side of the Nelson-Atkins Museum, we had to pull into the circle drive and take a few pictures. The Sculpture Lawn is one of my favorite places in Kansas City. I love the buildings, with their distinctive architectural concepts, I love the large, well maintained green space, and I love the view of it and from it. I love sitting on the benches that surround the lawn and watching people play games of pickup Ultimate and football, following the slope of the lawn all the way down to Theis Park and Brush Creek, the sculptures that dot the landscape, especially the shuttlecocks that are so familiar to a KansasCitian.
