True Blue Royals Fan

Our friend Bea Oglesby is still going strong. She lives at Lakeview Village in Lenexa and visits my folks often, that dear woman!

A summer project for Bea was knitting stripes into a scarf according to the win/lose fortunes of our Kansas City Royals.

The colors have significance. Bea explains:

"The scarf was busy work, but fun to do every day of the season. The royal blue was for a win at home and the light blue was a win away. The white was a loss at home and the gold was a loss away.

I do not think I will make another. I should send a picture to the Royals and ask them for free tickets to next years games."

That Bea. Way to go.

Homemade Hillary Sign


How I cheered when I noticed this sign up briefly (now gone) near the intersection of 13th and Haskell in Lawrence. It's rare to see a homemade sign these days - this one is so simple and to the point. Hooray!
