Went to picnic with Nadine and Pauline. Daddy got me excused from school. Went on dipper, scooter, hey day, ferris wheel, tumblebug, funhouse, etc.

Kansas City's 8th Street Tunnel

This abandoned streetcar tunnel had been essentially lost for forty years until a local realty company found the sealed entrance and reopened it. Actually two twin tunnels, the 8th Street Tunnel is well over a hundred years old, with one tunnel being built in 1888 and the other around 1903.
