Very entertaining! Great talent, beautiful harmonies. The show moved along and the performers all complimented one another with equal talent. The accompanying musicians were all top notch. The theater itself is cozy with interesting memorabilia, ample restrooms and reasonably comfortable seating. We will be returning and I’d highly recommend to others.

Very nice. A great place to learn about an earlier life in Olathe and how important Olathe was to the development of the WEST. Take your time to check out the museum and read the Captions of the displays. Tour the house and barn areas as well. Very Nice!!
4. Ernie Miller Nature Center

I visited Ernie Miller Nature Park the second time for hiking knowing that the Visitor Center would closed during the Lockdown. I hiked the about- a-mile plus long South Trail and had a good work out. Be aware that most of the trail is dirt and rocky, so it could be slippery under wet conditions. The trail crosses a little creek a couple of times, but the crossings were easy to get across. The Prairie grass field is a special attraction. I have toured the Visitor Center before and it is worth a visit.

We stopped here on way to Minnesota. What a great collection of cars and memorabilia. Didn't realize the automobile history in Kansas City. Great volunteers with loads of knowledge. Enjoyed seeing beautiful cars.
