What’s cool about where you’re from?

Southwest Missouri. Missouri is a "Constitutional Carry" state. Hard to beat these Ozark's. For the most part, the weather is pretty moderate. Surrounded by lakes, forests, and rolling hills. Springfield is called the Queen City of the Ozarks, ( I call it the Crime City ) I can be about anywhere I need to be in Springfield, in about 15 minutes. Arkansas, Kansas, or Oklahoma, in about an hour. Home of Bass Pro Shop, Hammonds Field, ( Springfield Cardinals baseball ) probably the nicest minor league stadium in the league, short trip to Branson, and Silver Dollar City. For the size of the city, it amazes me what all businesses it supports. 5 Wal Mart Supercenters, 5 Neighborhood Markets, 2 Sam's Clubs, building a new Costco, 2 Menards, 2 Lowes, Home Depot, 2 Harbor Freight, etc. and all busy, what seems all the time. I'm guessing at least 200 restaurants. 2 major hospitals, with some of the best medical care available. Too much more to mention. And the majority of people are friendly. Almost forgot to mention, lots of cruise in's, and car shows, along with Ozark Raceway, and Mo-Kan Dragway.
