Dedication From The Sky

Opening dedication remarks were made from bucket lifts high above the crowd. I thought the the crowd was kind of small...

Also, the buckets were kind of weird, and why was the governor of Kansas involved? This museum is in Missouri - so where was Matt Blunt? Not a fan of art, perhaps?

Nice to see Sebelius support Missouri though, like she did at the World War I Museum opening.
