travel :: staycation

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!

    What a beautiful building! Curious...is that type of architecture typical for KC? (Assuming that's a historical building, of course)

    I can't believe I didn't know about that place and I lived on the Plaza! I blame it on the fact that I was in law school and didn't get out much, but seriously, there's so much I need to learn about KC.
