You have a very valid point.
My name is Corwyn Paul Gentry, this is my first Dungeons and Dragons book that I have published. It is called the Landon Goblin Manual. It is a manual for D&D players to include 50 goblin tribes into their games without having to do the tedious work. It includes personalities, alliances, mortal foes, history and more.
Now I am a 17-year-old male who I would like to say is kinda amazing. Haha but no really right now I didn't mean for this to come off rude I am just very excited to be doing a book signing. Now, why you should meet me? Well in my personal opinion I think almost everyone would have a good time if you came out and not only that with my future plans the whole world will know of me before I'm 40. Anyway, I thank anyone that comes out and thank you for giving me advice as well as commenting on this post.

Huh. Very good! Also - if you guys are interested in this /u/tacitus's reply, you might like the book How The States Got Their Shapes I read it a few years ago. Pretty great.
Someone already mentioned [Kansas City and How It Grew 1822-2011] (http://www.amazon.com/Kansas-City-How-Grew-1822-2011/dp/0700618821) by James Shortridge, but I will second this book. Hands down the best for overall Kansas City history. It is a beautiful book too.
Still, crap beer aside, they were a cornerstone of the city, and gave back in great volumes.
a fantastic read, by the way:
http://www.amazon.com/Bitter-Brew-Anheuser-Busch-Americas-Kings/dp/0062009265
I have some texts to reccomend, from when I was studying cultural geography for Kansas City and the plains.
J. C. Nichols and the Shaping of Kansas City: Innovation in Planned Residential Communities - William S. Worley
https://www.amazon.com/Nichols-Shaping-Kansas-City-Residential/dp/0826209262/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482209175&sr=8-1&keywords=J.+C.+Nichols+and+the+Shaping+of+Kansas+City%3A
Cities on the Plains - James R. Shortridge
https://www.amazon.com/Cities-Plains-Evolution-Urban-Kansas/dp/0700613129/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482209198&sr=8-1&keywords=Cities+on+the+Plains
I also have a bunch more than are more oriented towards the geography/geology side of the development of the plains, but these are good ones.
This book might have some ideas for you. It's not 5-hours-away kind of stuff, but maybe you could string a few of them together and enjoy some back roads between them.
I was not clear. Let me clarify.
> In-N-Out Burger ... pay their employees a living wage
How much does In-N-Out Burder pay their employees?
Also, since we're appending snark to our posts now, I'd like to point out that the clause "they pay their employees a living wage" occurs exactly once in the text I replied to, in the second sentence of the third paragraph. This is well past the first sentence. You might want to have someone read you this book. It will do wonders for your quantitative analysis skills.
I would also recommend Matthew Desmond's "Evicted." Harrowing stuff.
Fuck scraping.... Get this.

Also, have a mechanic test your coolant to ensure you have the right antifreeze.
Welcome!
You might look into vermicomposting and/or bokashi. I keep a worm bin in my house all year round for food scrap composting. Isn't messy and doesn't smell at all. Check out the book Worms Eat My Garbage.
I think this might be more appropriate for the reading level of your surrounding company.
Some of you may be too young to know about these other events from KC's past:
Richard Grissom: https://www.amazon.com/Suddenly-Gone-Terrifying-Killers-Kidnapping-Murders/dp/0312960522
Bob Berdella: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Berdella
It's actually worse than that, turns out he didn't write it at all he's just an editor. Your source's credibility is being shot down more by the minute. Who are these other people that wrote the chapters?
https://www.amazon.com/Slum-Health-Street-Jason-Corburn/dp/0520281071
Looks like a residential wall used by some developers to prevent drive-bys/ excessive speeding in crime heavy areas. Citadel area is known as a high-density violent crime area. That's my guess. These types of walls were used to racially divide people back in the 60s 70s and 80s especially as some people couldn't handle the desegregation in schools. They're littered all over Missouri.
Here is a good book that will cover some more historical presendence for these types of walls: https://www.amazon.com/dp/022629031X/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_VhnXBb1M6A4M1
One's I've read and can recommend:
 
Tom's Town: Kansas City and the Pendergast Legend
It goes through early KC history and follows the rise of the political machine. Some of the buildings, statues, etc. mentioned are still around. Amazon prices are high, but the local library system has copies.
 
The Last Dance: The Skywalks Disaster and a City Changed
A retelling of the Hyatt skywalk collapse, including recollections of victims and first responders.
