Such fun

Sights, sounds, lights, motion - the fun of childhood.
Photo taken at the Kansas State Fair, in Hutchinson Ks - a place where lots of Wichitan's go each year for - carousel rides and more!

Exploration Place

This is a view of Exploration Place from the back side. It's a science museum with lots of stuff for kids to do, and adults, too. Their most recent exhibit is called "The Scoop on Poop". Y'all want to go?

Young Weeping Willow

I guess if I was a tree, this is the kind I would be, as there has been a fair amount of weeping in my life. Although, I have the strength of a mighty Oak. What kind of tree would you be?

Down?

It wasn't until just now - as I posted this picture, that I noticed the way to the Museums on the River is down???

Crossing the street

To cross the street, just push the button, and wait for the WALK signal.

Museums on the River

This is a decorative wall near the area of several Wichita museums.
It has the etching of the Arkansas river on it.
If you live anywhere but Kansas - this river is pronounced as "Are-Kan-Saw". But, in Kansas it is pronounced as "Are-Kansas". Interesting how the state you live in "Kan" make a difference in the pronunciation of a river that runs through it.

Burger King

When you "have it your way" - what do you request on your hamburger?
For me - it's Mayonaise, Lettuce, Onion, Tomato, and Cheese.
Sometimes if available, Jalapeno's.
But, never dill pickles.

Front and back

See the earring on the front of the dress?
And, the silver sash with a bow in back.

Old building

I wonder what's going on with this old building - looks like it's undergoing some restoration work.

Morning reflection

Morning - same picture frame as in yesterday's photo, only the next morning it no longer reflected the lamp - but instead curtains and morning light coming in a window.
