Only in Lawrence
Oct 31st, 2007 by Marilyn
Only in Lawrence can you see giant flightless Jayhawks on people’s lawns.
Only in Lawrence could your new mail carrier and your old mail carrier hook up. And talk about you.
Only in Lawrence can a grown man ride a unicycle down the street wearing a pink jumpsuit and bunny ears and no one bats an eye.
Only in Lawrence could I be living with my builder, know every restaurant manager in town, and eat the same hot, sugared donuts I ate in college – only with slower metabolism.
And only in Lawrence could my favorite barista* wear Mickey ears – with his name embroidered on the back, a gift from us for many fine espresso drinks – not only on Halloween, but just plain whenever he feels like it. Say, just because it’s Tuesday.
Happy Halloween from the wonderful world of Lawrence, Kansas.
*please note that our barista friend is not in witness protection. He was laughing and moving and that’s how it came out.
