It's too bad you didn't make it to Truman's Presidential Library --
it's one of the best. Also the National World War I Museum (only
museum in the country devoted solely to WWI). Next time!
At least you had the sense to eat at Arthur Bryant's. I hope you went
to the original location at 13th and Brooklyn.
Where else did you have BBQ? What else did you eat? There's a
sizable Vietnamese population here, so there's some really terrific
restaurants...
