LOL! Yea, definitely not Kansas. :) There are lots of Mexican places all over the area, same for Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Indian. There's a really really good Japanese ramen place right across the street from us, basically, as well. Gotta pick and choose somehow... G > On Feb 7, 2021,

We have received about 30 inches over the past two weeks, and it is still coming down. Fortunately, our temps are in the high 20s and low 30s F, so it is melting and sublimating between storms. Dan Matyola *https://tinyurl.com/DJM-Pentax-Gallery * On
