On our drive home Sunday, we made it as far as Poplar Bluff before needing fuel for the truck and our bellies. I did a quick search for restaurants, other than the Dairy Queen we ate at for lunch and the MacDonalds (aka McDonald’s… there’s a story there!). I came across the fact that Poplar…
There’s a story, of a trip to Mermet… oh wait, that was last year’s theme song. There actually wasn’t a theme song this year… more of a quote… but I’m not putting that out there! It’s the yearly trek to Mermet Springs over in Metropolis Illinois. Last year on our way we found an Italian…

A week ago or so when I posted about our meal at Maria’s, that night I really felt like Beef Nachos. Those Beef Nachos at Maria’s are awesome! Mark got home from work and we were discussing dinner. I mentioned those nachos and we decided to go to Rancho Grande in Carthage. We haven’t been…
This weather lately has been crazy. One day it’s so hot you can’t stand it, the next it’s cloudy and nice. Then it’s sunny and nice and then it’s cloudy and hot. I’m so confused. I think my cough is too. I’m not sick but I can’t get this dadgum cough to go away. I’ve…
Guess what time of year it is… Chiefs Season! Go Chiefs! Okay, so it’s not exactly true football season, it’s Pre-season, but still It’s Chiefs Season!! Saturday was a Pre-season game at home, so that meant we all piled on the Chiefs bus and headed to Kansas City.
