travel :: staycation

November 7, 2011

happy monday! hope you had a stellar weekend. we spent some time celebrating five years together and an early birthday evening with a little staycation at local urban b&b, the southmoreland inn on the country club plaza.

that's our room above. each one is named and decorated for a notable kansas citian, many of whom shaped the city's development in major ways. during turndown service, they actually flipped a book open to our room's figure of inspiration (william rockhill nelson), and i couldn't help but keep searching the book to discover the stories!
