    When the urge to take a beautiful walk comes upon you, head to one of the access points to Mill Creek Streamway Park. This amazing, linear park runs north and south through the cities of Lenexa, Shawnee, and Olathe. The trail begins on Nelson Island on the Kansas River and goes all the way to Olathe—about 17 miles! The walking/biking trail is named the Gary L Haller Trail and it is designated as a National Recreational Trail. What an amenity for people in Johnson County, Kansas. There are eight access points and three of them are in Lenexa. Much of the Lenexa part of the trail parallels active train tracks, and there are some very scenic overlooks there. If you are on a long walk, you will have lots of support in the way of drinking fountains and restrooms. There are plenty of benches along the way too where you can take a break. Many spurs from the trail go through other parks and destinations such as Blackhoof Park/Lake Lenexa.

    I visited Black Dog Coffeehouse this morning in Lenexa off 87th Street and was fabulously enlightened. It's a very cozy yet urban feel with yummy coffees, lattes, pastries, and a great vibe about it. It was 9:30 a.m. on a weekday when I visited and it was still packed with people visiting, having business meetings and using the free wi-fi. Please check it out if you are in the area, as you will not be disappointed!

    Ask Ken a question about Lenexa.
    Lenexa has sold/closed 215 homes in the last three months as of January 15th, 2019. This ratio of homes sold over time is called the absorption rate. The most current average absorption rate is 57 homes per month. As of writing there are 157 homes for sale in Lenexa. If the absorption rate continues at the same pace as the last three months, it would take just under four months to sell all of the homes for sale assuming that all homes would sell, and that no additional homes came on the market.

    In general terms a market is considered balanced when the supply of homes equals 5.5 to 6.5 months of inventory compared to demand or absorption rate. The lower the month’s supply of home is, the seller tends to see an advantage in price or terms. The higher the months supply of homes the more advantage there is to the buyer in terms of price or terms.

    Higher demand in Lenexa, versus some other Johnson County cities gives home sellers an advantage while negotiating terms. If you are thinking of selling your home in Lenexa, it doesn’t get much better than this.

    One of the best features of the Lenexa lifestyle is the fine park system. A favorite park in the heart of Lenexa is Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park. It houses the Legler Barn Museum, which is where the Lenexa Historical Society is located. It has a beautiful lake with a large bridge and a fine gazebo too. Many festivals and events are held here, but Christmas is especially wondrous.

    There is a ceremony for the lighting of the park and every night you'll find people walking around the lake to view the lovely lights. It is not unusual to see portrait photographers and landscape photographers all around--including me! Every year there seem to be more lights and more beauty to take in.

    The Old Town part of Lenexa is so picturesque--especially in the spring! The railroad crew had a nice day to work on those tracks. To me, the whole character of the old downtown Lenexa is centered around the train tracks. I love that both my office and my house are nearby. It is fun to hear them go by. Improvements to Old Town Lenexa are in the works, and I can't wait to see what they are. Lenexa is one great place to live. I Love Lenexa!

    There is a park in Lenexa that is in an out-of-the-way location. It is aptly named Hidden Woods Park, and is located to the west of Quivira, off 83rd Street. It is a small, 16 acre park behind the exclusive Maplewood subdivision. The park has a walking trail and a small pond. You can even fish for bluegill, channel catfish, and sunfish there (with a license, of course). I think the best part about the park is the natural grasses and other plants. The cat tails and native grasses wave in the wind and are fascinating to examine. I can sit on the dock or on a bench and enjoy watching and hearing birds. You can hear plenty of frogs croaking too! It is quite the place to get away from it all.

    Lenexa is known for its food festivals. There is the Food Truck Frenzy, Spinach Festival, the Great Lenexa BBQ Battle, and the Lenexa Chili Challenge.

    This year, the Chili Challenge is on Friday and Saturday, October 20th and 21st. The weather promises to be perfect! There is free admission to the event on both days, and free samples will be given out on Saturday while they last.

    This is so much fun for everyone, and it is a great opportunity to see the old downtown Lenexa. While the original downtown is pretty small, it has some cool old buildings, an old train station, and they have great shops too. There is live music both nights, and fireworks on Friday night.

    On January 31, 2017, I attended a meeting at the Lackman Library on 87th Street. It was a public input session from residents about the features and services they would like to see in the new library being built in Lenexa City Center. What a great opportunity to talk with Lenexa city officials, library staff, and the architects. There was a good turnout for the meeting, and the public had many wonderful suggestions for the new space. It was also an opportunity to see the plans for the rest of the Lenexa City Center, which is such an exciting addition to the city. I plan to attend more of these informative sessions!
