When I was a kid, I lived in Overland Park. Got some great memories of the people there and the fantastic schools. I plan one day to visit there...
I’ll try to make but have a 9:00 a.m. meeting st 91st & Metcalf, so need to duck out early.
When I was stationed at Ft. Riley, I bought a ‘66 MGB. It was in great shape, but needed a little work. I made more than a few trips over to Victoria British Ltd. in Lenexa for parts and accessories, and would usually end up grabbing something to eat in the Overland Park area :-)
