We spent the last week of October in Kansas City, Missouri. The first day there we spent driving to several prominent church history sites: Independence, Liberty Jail, and the site of Adam-Ondi-Ahman. It was a wonderful day and the perfect start of our trip. I was surprised at how beautiful Missouri looked at this time of year! The fall colors were everywhere and we thoroughly enjoyed them!
The rest of the week was all about cattle. We attended the Lowline auction & show- but w/o our stock trailer we were "just looking", not buying. We learned a lot at a beef showmanship clinic. And we also spent time looking at Charolais - a French breed of cattle - all white, and quite large - to cross breed with our Lowlines for beef production. Kansas City is famous for BBQ - so we enjoyed several fabulous meals. KC is also famous for fountains - they are everywhere! Many quite fabulous and beautiful. We enjoyed walking around the new Country Plaza district in the evenings, even though it was really cold! Kansas City is clean and quite beautiful!
