25th Gateway Classic

Memorial Day weekend means its time for the Gatway Classic Boomerang Tournament.  Lots of boomerangs and great throwers.  My favorite events of the year are always the boomerang events.  Not that the other events aren't cool but, come on, boomerangs.  Feeling the sun and wing.  Smelling the air, grass, trees, and maybe corn and cows.  There are so many cool boomerangs and throwers out there.  People that aren't throwing are seriously missing out.  Got to stock up on some boomerangs from the Mark Legg milk crates of Lincoln rangs, all going for $5 each.

Art On The Square 2012

The Art On The Square 2012 has commenced for the year.  Pretty interesting to see an area go from regular car traffic to fully packed with people and artists over a four day period.  There is so much that goes on behind the scenes to make it happen.  While just showing up you don't fully get how much goes on.  Volunteering for these events gives a different perspective on these events.

KDHX Midwest Mayhem

Got a chance to hang out at the KDHX's Midwest Mayhem last night.  That is a neat event.  Lot's of music and people and burlesque from Show Me Burlesque.  The City Museum is a pretty neat place.  There is so much to explore in there.  It's an easy place to get lost in.  There's big whales, fake caves, turtles, tunnels, and fake trees.  It is a neat place to just hang out.  Lots of slides too.  One that is 3 stories high and one that is about 6 stories tall.  The 6 story one is worth the walk up the 6 flights of spiral stairs.  If you want to come hang out next year, support local, independent music with KDHX.
