Visited, would not make it home - no way! - 1/30/2017
I visited Garden City, KS for 3 weeks. As I write this, my glasses are broken, so I hope my touch typing is in shape and this is legible. I found Garden City to be a place where people lied to me, and thought it was funny.....services were bad. The only place which listened to my complaint and made it right, was The Walmart Supercenter. The rest of every place I went, thought it was funny to be awful to a visitor.
Church especially took no interest in me. And I am a Teacher. Everybody said Garden City needs Teachers. But the State of Kansas was going to make me jump through MANY hoops nobody else made me - at my expenses - and I had a job in another State, waiting for me.
You could not pay me to live here. Weather is bad too. But mostly I would not live here because people lied to me - a lot. (and II caught them in their lies).
