Neosho

I lived there for a year when I was in 3rd grade. made a ton of friends that I was able to keep in touch with and visit for a few years after I left.had some really awesome neighbors, anda really good church. lived just up the hill from the elementary school, the park, and down town.

I was born here. That’s the only tie I have to the place, apart from the fact that my family has not sought to escape yet. I joined the military when I was 17 just to leave this place. It’s dull, dull, dull. Little in the way of entertainment, people seem rude and backwards, the only centers of worship are Christian and if you say you are not Christian you get strange looks. The city parks used to be lovely, but they are always strewn with litter now and the landscaping leaves a lot to be desired. A lot of the old neighborhoods have been taken over by partygoers and junky people in general and a lot of the fine old houses have fallen into decay. The streets are full of potholes. There aren’t many sidewalks to walk on if you wish to go out for a stroll.

It is pretty horrible. I can’t wait to leave. I’m just here temporarily.

as a marker on a map it means i am only 45 minutes away from family.It’s a long drive to get there and when i see the city limit sign i now that i will have nearly completed a very long 7 hour drive!
