Kansas City is the place to be.

The union station in K-city is pulling the curtain off of a 3 million dollar ancient history exhibit, together with the Dead Sea scroll foundation running until May 13. There are no bones, tools, or head stones in the exhibit. The exhibits focus is on the set of fragile scrolls found around the Dead Sea 60 years ago. Hand tools and bones are tangible objects that can help us speculate about their lives - how they worked, the homes they lived in, even there diet. But the scrolls are precise, they tell us what these people believed about God and the great mysteries of life, in their genuine hand written words. The Dead Sea scrolls plummet even deeper with links to the Hebrew Bible. The further back we can go to the pure text, without mans discrimination or tampering, the clearer view we can get of ancient Jewish life. And from that, follows the birth of Christianity, the dawning of the Muslim movement, and the founding of the western world.


I know no one will make a trip to Kansas City. I’ve been only once, loved the downtown. Kansas City has more fountains than Paris France, 200 dotted around the city. It's also home of the Kansas City Jazz sound, founded in the cities jazz clubs by Count Basie.
