The Outhouse -- Lawrence Kansas -- 1985 to 1998

The Outhouse -- 4 1/2 miles east of Mass Lawrence, Kansas
A good friend of mine is dumping his video archives on Youtube.  I didn't know these videos even existed.  Chrometuna, aka boB Cutler was involved in the Outhouse from the beginning, and it is good for all us old farts that he brought some of this stuff back to life, if at least on magnetic particles on plastic tape, and now in cyberspace.  I hope he doesn't mind if I embed some of his videos here...

GWAR

SNFU

boB even crosslinked my stuff, which I will embed here...
Helmet -- 1992

UK Subs -- 1997

Zeke -- 1997

Also, I'd like to mention Mike Blur, who is another archivist from the Lawrence Kansas punk scene of the 80's, and even some 70's....

Mike Blur

With all this archive video turning up, maybe it's time for a collaboration on an Outhouse documentary of sorts....

Daytripping Never Takes a Holiday -- Downtown Grandview, Missouri

Grandview, Missouri
I lived there off and on for 23 years.  In 2000, I started a walking routine and pretty much settled on a path which I like to take every so often.  Grandview is a working class town on the south side of the Metro.

The line of the former Frisco passes through Grandview still, though I think it is used as a spur for the Kansas City Southern.

Downtown

The corner bar is open on Thanksgiving Day







Downtown is trying to reinvent itself.


Stretch Sculpture outside city hall.  I'm finding I really like Stretch's stuff.








Grandview Baptist Church


When I used to walk here in 2000, this used to be a bus station.







1950's era post office with googie details




Those damn red light cameras are here too

Cy Young building with googie sign


The neon could use some work

Do-Nuts in the Cy Young building

The Cuckert building used to be a vacuum shop that also sold second hand mowers





I used to buy dog food here

Tima seems a bit overdressed, but it was really cold today


I don't know what the hell this is


Kansas City Southern main line through Grandview
















My favorite Model railroad store, though I haven't been here in awhile



Erica's Psychic studio -- I've never seen Erica


I love the googie front end grafted on this old house





Mid-century modern school building



City Hall

This was moved to city hall from the tracks







Old faded buzz saw eagle






TJ's cafe.  I've eaten here a few times.





























Waffle House, I've eaten here many times











































I was able to catch the trains on the KCS




Tima in her winter jackets and booties

I was having a conversation a few days ago about graffiti art and the rolling canvas we see every day on the rails.  So, while I waited for this train to pass, I checked out the roll by gallery.

















Another view of Tima and our sick cat, Jack.
