You just never know when you're going to walk into a place when the people there will start randomly singing shanty pirate songs. Never happen to you? Well, you obviously have never been to this place in Missouri.

The Legend and country icon Willie Nelson was just announced as a grandstand performer for the Illinois State Fair.

Urban legends can be fun for those that tell the tales. But, what about when those stories begin affecting real families? Based on my research, that's exactly what happened to the Missouri family who were at the center of the Albino Farm near Springfield, Missouri.

Exploring abandoned places is very popular these days and I've shared many with you. However, this is the first time I can show you what was found inside one of these decaying structures with news that it's about to be reborn. That is the case for a now-empty Pillsbury factory in Springfield, Illinois.

It's one thing to say a place is haunted. It's quite another when it's been declared "certified haunted", but that's exactly the case for a haunted Missouri castle where over 100 have died.

It's one thing to care about a situation, but it's quite another to do something about it especially when that "something" requires an extraordinary effort. That's exactly what happened when one Missouri family heroically rescued 31 orphans from Ukraine.

The other day, we offered up some suggestions for Missouri romantic getaways. In the interest of equal time, we thought we should also pass along some suggestions on places for you and your sweetie to get away to in the Land of Lincoln.

Could I interest you in some cheese? Lots and lots of cheese...buried underground in Missouri. It's a spacious 400,000 square foot cheese cave and I can prove its existence below Springfield, Missouri.

If the legend is to be believed, this is one Missouri bridge you don't want to drive over when it's your wedding day. The stories claim there is a sad bride who was murdered before she was married that resides there.
