A ribbon-cutting ceremony on Friday, Sept. 30, celebrated completion of the K-7 Johnson Drive/55th Street Interchange Project in western Shawnee. Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback and other dignitaries spoke during the event, which included one ribbon-cutting by elected officials and one by contractors who worked on the $21.4 million project.

Point of View
What’s the best way to spend a snow day?
Shovel your driveway and paths, check neighbors’ driveways and then grab all your closest little ones and find the biggest sledding hill. Snowmen also are a must. Snow days are a great time to catch up on missed shows and much-needed rest. I love snowdays, they haven’t changed one bit even as an adult, although I am sure not all working adults can say that, but I am happy I can. I was excited to see the snowmen and other snow sculptures throughout the Lawrence and Kansas City metro areas.
