Sunday
- December 1, 2013: Having returned from Connecticut, tonight was our
first night of checking on Christmas Light Displays for our Johnson
County Christmas Tour. We began with the far north portion of Johnson
County and drove along County Line Road where we already included a couple
of major displays which were across the street in Wyandotte County. Following
up on a tip, we discovered two more displays which were a in the first
block of South 46th Terrace, which we have added to what we are now calling
the Far North Johnson County & South Wyandotte County Tour.

Friday
- December 6, 2013: After having been out checking displays in Johnson
County this week, tonight we drove over to Lawrence, to confirm the displays
which were in last years
Lawrence
Christmas Light Tour. Most displays remain from 2012 and the multi
family neighborhood lights near the intersection of Wildwood Drive and
Woodridge Drive were more impressive than ever.
While
we were in Lawrence, we checked out Buffalo Bob's BBQ on Massachusetts
Street, downtown. We went with the Family BBQ Dinner, with brisket, ham,
turkey, sausage, ribs, chicken, cole slaw, baked beans, fritters, bread
and a giant platter of homemade tater curl fries. It was a big meal for
three people, for $29.99. I enjoyed the meal, but it didn't make the threshold
for our Unique Kansas Restaurants
page.

Friday
- December 20, 2013: For lunch, I revisited Master Wok, to update its
listing in our Olathe Restaurant Guide.
I really should go here more often, but it seems I only go when it is time
to review it. At lunch, Master Wok offers 26 complete meals for $5.95 to
$6.95 - complete with the choice of fried or steamed rice, the choice of
egg drop or hot & sour soup and the choice of egg roll or 2 crab Rangoon.
And
it is good food. The $5.59 Szechuan chicken dish was excellent!
