Not Quite Great, Yet Not So Plain

I recently made my annual trek to The Great Mall of the Great Plains. And things are finally getting interesting out in Olathe.

New anchor Steve & Barry’s adds much-needed vitality to the aging mall. And while mainstays like Burlington Coat Factory are still doing big business, more esoteric mom-and-pop outfits are encroaching on the standard fare. Try on a sari at an Indian clothier. Drink a beer at a Mexican cantina. Or if you don’t roll like that, how about making a Christian scrapbook?

Fill up the gas tank; I’m planning to return soon.
