The Adequate Mall



Em had a hoodie she needed to exchange at Aeropostale, which gave me the opportunity to aggravate the hell out of her by finding creative ways to pronounce the name of the store.





It also gave us the opportunity to visit the Adequate Mall in Olathe. They call it the 'Great Mall,' but it didn't meet my criteria for 'greatness' in the best of times. These days, it's looking like about 50% occupancy.



The firefighting museum with the ladder truck has been joined by a model railroad outfit that rivals what's in the lobby at Union Station.



They post signs saying not to touch the models, but kids were literally climbing on the stuff. One parent would pull a kid off and another kid would belly flop across the tracks to grab a model car. The exhibitors were cooler about this than I'd have been.
