July 3, 2013 The Fourth of July is tomorrow, everyone is excited to celebrate Independence Day. The Fourth of July is always jammed packed with traditions and events. Some may not know, or maybe you want to forget, but one tradition is the Nathan's Hotdog Eating Contest that happens every year on the Fourth of July.
July 3, 2013 My wife was recently craving going to a yogurt shop and making her own bowl. We have tons of ice cream and custard places in the area, but she was really looking for just yogurt. This weekend after the Wiener Dog Races, we decided to head towards Kansas City. After a long day of shopping and walking we decided to find a yogurt place.
We punched in the GPS and found a place called Peach Wave. So we drove towards it on State Line Road. I have to admit, I didn't know much about the place, but sometimes, adventure is the spice of life.

June 21, 2013 You have seen them popping up all over: bright tents that hold all of the goodies that your little pyro heart desires. It's that time of year again, and many of you will flock to a firework tent here in the area to purchase some fireworks. What would the 4th of July be without fireworks?

June 14, 2013 This week Dale Malone from Dukes & Boots posed a question on Facebook about what new foods you'd like to see on the menu. This last Wednesday at lunch, a bunch of our staff got together for the KIX 105 Wednesday lunch and discussed some of the great things that could be brought to the table. Our Events Coordinator Leslee is currently going through the Healthy U Program and we started talking about how it would be interesting if a bar and grill took a healthy way of thinking, one that would surprise people that it was on the menu and would still be unique to Sedalia.

June 12, 2013 While I attempt to stay as neutral as possible on issues I cover for the news, sometimes comments on an issue beg to be addressed. One of those issues is the smoking ban, that has been cussed and discussed to death both in the city council meetings and in the media, including in my news reports.
June 12, 2013 Father's Day is right around the corner, and being the procrastinator that I am, I have yet to buy a gift for ol' Pops. Not like it matters, I feel like buying your Father a gift is one of the toughest things to do. I know I'm safe with a gift card to a restaurant, but what if you really want to wow him?
