KC Up Close

Tonganoxie is a small town. Our tallest building is only two stories (although our fire department ladder reaches four). But we're a hop, skip and a jump from the big city, which is where Cody and his friend Nate spent a good chunk of a beautiful Saturday riding their bikes. With skyscrapers looming over head and the smell of barbecue in the air, they cruised from one end of the city to the other. It wasn't an easy ride though - there were marathon runners to contend with and tourists to out maneuver. But when all was said and done, it was a great time with some cool pictures (click here) and it ended with some good ol' original KC barbecue at Winslows. As for small town Tonganoxie, local politics surrounding the 4th Street project continue to dominate the headlines - this time with Cody being quoted rather than Paige.
