Linda Self, a Self resident of Kansas City, would be happy to assist you in “Seeing the Sights!” I hope to be your tour guide as you experience the various sights in Independence and downtown Kansas City, Missouri. I will try to carpool groups that want to see the same sight and assist others with directions and information (directions, cost, amount of time needed to see the sight, etc.) on the other sights. Please surf the web regarding Independence and Kansas City, as there are coupons (especially for seniors), trip packages, etc., that can lower the cost of your entertainment and help you make the most of your time here.
