I rolled through St. Louis one time about 33 yrs ago and all I remember was that is was a S hole But that's all I remember , prolly some good parts somewhere Still is! But anywhere away from big city's is a slice of Paradise. Anybody going to Bass Pro in Springfield, I HIGHLY recommend lunch at the BBQ place across the highway from the main entrance. Superb! It's called Whole Hog Bbq. Best ribs around! Missouri has a little of all the US in it....even salt water if you know the right spots to look. ol'dad

After living in Kentucky and Tennessee I came back to the west and have no desire to live anywhere east of the Rockies . I will always have fond memories of the good people in those states though , including Oklahoma where some family still live. Heck , I think I'm eligible to live on the Choctaw Rez in Oklahoma , but it's hard to beat the West and high desert country even with all the yuppies , freaks , and a holes .........  The Choctaw might disagree... But I think they did pretty good with the land they were alotted. SE OK, especially around Broken Bow, is a paradise. Mike

I forgot to mention the Flat Creek Bar and Restaurant, really cool place with excellent food and staff! Definitely going there again on our next visit.

Lived here all my life. Always wanted to go west to the mountains tho. Finally got out to Colorado a few years ago to go elk hunting. I did like the mountains, but after a week I got really home sick and tired of seeing just mountains and very little variety. Without a few aspen trees scattered in, it all just looked the same. I live around Mark Twain Lake. Go one direction and it is hills and bluffs, go a mile in the other direction and it is flat farm ground. Lots of variety in this part of the state. Wouldn't want to go anywhere else I don't think.
P.S. If you come to Mark Twain Lake for the first time boating, bring a few dozen props and maybe a lower unit or 2 lol. I'm going to retire in Mo. or Ar. , I felt the same way about '' out west '' - meridian , Id. [near boise] lived there 07 & 08 . Dry , no rain vast expanses of nothing more than a coyote - great place to visit but that's it for me . I guess everybody has what they like and maybe what they are use to . I grew up in SW Ohio , soybean/cornfields green as can be nice rivers creeks etc. . Too crowded there now most of what were fields are now filled with houses . So it's move west old man , but not way out west .

I agree table rock lake is a Beauty. Very clear water and super deep lake also. The state has so much diversity from North to South alotta different landscape to see.

one nice thing about MO is that kc and st looey don't out vote the rest of the state. they have a fish and game that has to be one of the top 3 in the country as well as very reasonable trapping fishing and hunting regs. you can legally harvest plenty of wild animals without breaking any laws. a real nice variety of wild life also The people of Missouri need to vote out Senator Claire McCaskill this November.

, I felt the same way about '' out west '' - meridian , Id. [near boise] lived there 07 & 08 . Dry , no rain vast expanses of nothing more than a coyote - great place to visit but that's it for me I'm the opposite, I hate humidity, and MO has it like here. I'm heading 2-3 hrs North of Meridian to Council or Bear or Cascade where the timber is great and not barren like the Boise area. Lived in MO and ID back in the 80's....both are beautiful.
