Last Night In KC

When Scott first moved to KC he moved into a retirement home. The apartment had Bingo Night, Pot Luck Dinners, Quilting, and various activities for its tenants. We teased Scott about his apartment. After a year of "retirement living" he decided to move and he promptly left his retirement home and moved into a chicken coop.

Yes, I said chicken coop. It isn't a typo.

Fortunately he isn't nesting with the chickens or gathering eggs. At one time this place was a working farm. As time went on the farm was converted into apartments with fewer than 15 tenants. The pasture land was left untouched and became a large yard with deer grazing at dusk. It is a pastoral setting, a rare piece of ground for being in a large city. What is even more amazing is the rent is reasonable, there is no paperwork to fill out, and you don’t have to give up your first born son to rent it. When an apartment becomes available the owners just hang up a sign. The tenants that live here have been there for years. Scott was so fortunate to find such a wonderful place.

The tenants are all laid back and no one complained when Scott and his friends held a cookout and brought out their musical instruments and started to play. It was the perfect ending for our time in Kansas City.
