APRIL 2011 Independence MO

I have visited The Harry S Truman Presidential Library & Museum before, in my youth.  I remember it as large & I loved the recreation of his Oval Office.  Well, it's still large & I still love the Oval office the best. 

The day I picked, there were 2 or 3 school field trips there as well.  In fact, I was inspired to visit due to my friend Nate (@WedwayRadio), a teacher who students were visiting there.  It was a great walk, good exercize for me.  The parking is to the side of the building & still quite the walk from the marked Disabled spots. The staff, very kind. The Museum, a MUST!

Great film about Pres. Truman, about 45 mins.  Still love the recreation of his Oval offices.  Lots of exhibits that explained history that I had forgotten! An assasination attempt? Truman Soap? Jack Benny visits the Truman Library?  It was all fun, knowledgeable & grand.  I look forward to seeing more!

MAR 2011 Lees Summit MO

After our Branson trip, I wanted to start out locally visiting sites.  I found out that we have an Art gallery here in Lee's Summit, MO!  The "Got Art Gallery" is located 18 Southwest 3rd Street
Lee’s Summit, MO 64063.  If you drive too fast down 3rd street and blink, you'll miss it!

The staff is very friendly & were happy to meet & talk social networking.  A small gallery, they support local artists, some national, but all very intriging and brilliant. I was fortunate enough to meet a local artist Tom Mallot & view his creation. I bought some original art work jewelry for my wife & daughter.

Got Art offers classes for the young & young at heart!
