Missouri aka: MO

So, I used to teach German in Scranton, Pennsylvania. While doing so, I wrote a letter of recomendation for a student of mine to go to school at Drury in Springfield, Missouri. So, while on my cross-country trip, I decided to check in and see just what he was up to. I was pleasantly surprised by what I saw in Missouri. The people were nice, the steak burgers were good, and I managed to find an old game of RISK! That combined with our visit to Bass Pro Shops made for an excellent visit!

I live in St. Louis and, frankly, it’s not my favorite place. The St. Louis Zoo is pretty cool, though.

Was to get liquor. Arkansas was a dry place :)

I’ve been to Missouri twice now. Both times for camp when I was younger. I had a blasty-blast. It was called Freedom Camp. It was a church camp but I had more fun there than any other camp I’ve ever been to. That and all my friends from my church youth group went w/ so it was prety kewl.

All I got to see was the gateway arch, because we were driving through the state & I don’t think I’ll ever forget it :) I’d love to go back and visit longer some day.
