The internet loves declaring the best and worst of places and I prefer to focus on that first one. There is now a lake in Illinois that's been named the best in the state for a very specific type of tourist. Let's explore.
Things are done differently in Missouri and I mean that as a good thing. However, there was this time when a Missouri guy saw a big bear cross a trail in front of him and his response was...different than what I probably would have done as he decided to capture video and chat with the animal.
Most of us that have either grown up and/or live in Missouri have hiked in the Ozarks at some point in our lives. If you decide to take that adventure, you'd be advised to watch out for a legend that claims a sinister little boy awaits you on those remote trails.
