Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.

A Seward Mystery

Not far away from Lloyd and Lauren’s house, right on 7th Street in Seward, Nebraska is a mystery: Kelly’s Paradise. A large sign is painted on the side of a building advertising this paradise. The entrance is in the back of the building. The establishment appears to have various beach-themed decorations, but no declaration of what kind of business this might be. There are no store hours, either. A sign on the door simply says “Open by appointment only.”

What could this be? Is it an opium den? Is it a service akin to that used by the visitors to Fantasy Island? Is it a euthanasia agency? I’m quite puzzled. I’ve watched it closely the entire time I’ve been in Seward, but no clues have been forthcoming. I will have my network of spies in Seward keep watch. They’ll find out… they’ll find out.

A non-specific paradise.

    Why don’t you just make an appointment and find out?

    My, my, my, Brad…I suspect Kelly’s Paradise may not be all that different from Sheri’s ShowBar or the 2 O’clock Club here in Bawlmer, Hon….think about it….[you dear naive soul you]

    ‘Course, I could be wrong. So many reputable establishments I’ve known have their entrances in the rear and are open only by appointment………….

    So, yea: go make that appointment and tell us all about it afterward, will ya’?!

    What are those things in the bushes? Easter Eggs?

  4. Lauren

    Hmmm….I think I know where my shed hooker came from.

    • Karla

      Yes, but what about the box springs hooker?

      • Lauren

        Slumberland had a sale.

    You never know Brad – it could be an awesome massage place that serves fancy tropical drinks while you are being serviced. You love a good massage. You should make an appointment. Go ahead. I dare you!

    • Lauren

      “While you are being serviced” – Ha!!!

  6. Peggy

    Let me start the investigation by checking our work email for any ads from Kelly.

    • Kim

      LOL! Brad-if you are checking school e-mail…watch out!

    So the # for this business is 1-402-641-2849. I say that everyone in Bradland calls and asks. Maybe they will get the point and make things more clear.

    • Michele

      OK kiwe – you go first.

        It’s the cell phone of Kelly Hanson and it went directly to voice mail. I didn’t leave a message because I am sure she doesn’t want to call CA. So, it is still a mystery.

        • Karla

          Meh, she probably has unlimited long distance – make her call you back! If she doesn’t have ULD, well, that’s just the cost of doing business.

          Sorry it this sounds cold – I have a case of the Mondays today.

    Speaking of something fishy…Michele and I fed your school fish -or should I say School Of Fish today. You have tons of fish and babies and at least 1/2 dozen shrimp.

    A full house!

    • Carol

      Watch out there, fish-feeding friends! I recall a summer I faithfully visited with and fed a (huge) single solitary fishy in J-3 until the day before Brad’s return…when I found him floating belly up……the fish, not Brad…well, maybe Brad can float that way, too; I never asked for a demo. So anyway – it might look great now but wait until…when did you say you are scheduled to get back again, Brad?

  9. Michele

    Yeah – it worked! I did it all by myself!
    (You don’t have to call me back Kim.)
