The Apartments above and the three homes below were in an Historic District.   Doesn't mean a thing.

This years Day of the Dead at the Kansas City Museum didn't disappoint.   Well done, and accompanied by a wonderful sunset.   Social distancing required advance registration for the event and all slots are reserved already.
