If you're the kind of person who loves water slides and is also easily distracted by pretty lights, I have found a Missouri option for you. It's one of the wildest water slides that takes on a different appearance at night with freaky LED night lights.

The best of anything is a very subjective opinion. However, in this case I believe that you can at least say this Missouri play area is one of the best in the state and the best part is it's an easy day trip to just west of Wentzville.

I'm always hesitant to label anything "the best" for many reasons. First, what's best for one person may not be best for someone else. Second, it's high praise and there really should only be one "best". But, I do think there is one treehouse in Missouri that might just be the best in the state.

If you had to list the best things about the state of Wisconsin, I would argue that one characteristic should be among the first things mentioned and that's the fact that the there are a great variety of quality small cities. A new national ranking agrees as 3 have made the top 10 most livable small cities in America.

It's not an island - yet - but it's about as close as you're gonna get in Missouri and it could be whatever you want it to be. Home, resort, condos...use your imagination on this unique parcel of Missouri land that's currently available.

There are many unique homes in Missouri, but few that were made from materials that this one was. It's a beautiful home in Kansas City, Missouri made entirely of shipping containers and it's a looker.

I wouldn't look at this recent reports of bed bugs in Illinois if I were you, but you obviously did anyway, so that probably means you're about to travel and you might have concerns about places in the Land of Lincoln you might stop at. Spoiler Alert: you are right to be afraid...so very very afraid.

I have always daydreamed about having a log home in Missouri and I found one that checks nearly all of the boxes. It's available now and I'm pretty sure I need this right now, but there's a problem.

I grew up in the Missouri generation that lived dangerously. We drank directly out of water hoses because we were daredevils. Yes, a little sarcasm here, but it's a real concern with the upcoming 4th of July holiday weekend about the latest status of lakes and beaches in Missouri. The state has the latest bacteria test results available.

Good things come to those who wait and that apparently includes trains as there is much rejoicing about a new service connecting Minnesota and Illinois that took 12 years to get done.
