Downtowners...

Harry, Marilyn, Teri, Austin, Dan, Kelli and Brynn all headed downtown to act like tourists while your author had to work for a living. Kelli and family arrived by light rail from the southern metro area while our side of the family arrived via conventional travel. They all met at Union Station, a historic landmark established in 1881. This once train station now serves as a hub for all bus and metro train travel. After they were done there, they walked along the downtown Platte River, an area we may choose to rent for a year prior to moving back to Texas--still on the discussion table. After they had built up an appetite, they all had lunch at the Cheesecake Factory, essentially a factory for fat production, but oh so yummy!
