Reported on this blog first yesterday morning was the breaking news of bodies of a young mother and her infant found in a creek in south Kansas City-MO..
That creek is a tributary of the BIG Blue River- but I've heard and continue to hear this morning from TV news readers the BIG Blue being refered to as the LITTLE Blue.
The BIG Blue starts in Johnson County-KS and enters KC-MO around State Line and 151st Street southwest of the Martin City area.
The BIG Blue then runs north-northeast through east Kansas City and enters the Missouri east of the KCP&L Hawthorne power plant in the KC-MO East Bottoms.
The LITTLE Blue runs several miles EAST of the BIG Blue.
The LITTLE Blue is dammed behind Lake Longview- then runs northeastward to serve as the northern border of Lee's Summit and Independence- then runs through eastern Independence to empty into the Missouri river near Sibley in extreme northeast Jackson County.
A little thing- but if your going to report geography- PLEASE get it right.
