We celebrated our ninth wedding anniversary by going to Concordia, Missouri to the 8th Annual Pre-1865 Living History Trade Fair. We got up early and headed north from home. Our drive was only about three hours and the night before we had a bit of snow, but that didn’t deter our outing. Robert met up …
It was Robert’s Birthday and he wanted to go somewhere special. We left home and headed west into Kansas then south to Oklahoma.
