Hannibal

I have a deep conviction that BBQ should be its own food group. Change my mind. Actually, don't waste your time. It's not possible. My love of all things BBQ is one of the reasons I was pretty psyched to see a Hannibal BBQ joint get included on what is described as the "ultimate BBQ road trip" in Missouri.

Trash is trash, right? Why would it matter if someone puts trash in your dumpsters? Well, if you pay for that dumpster and find that someone is using yours for free that might anger you. Well, if you catch the person using your trash dumpster it could lead to a fine in Missouri.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That's true of homes, too. If you look for the least expensive home in Missouri, you'll see one is a nearly 100 year old home in Hannibal. There are some pictures to show you what it's like inside.

Please don't take this wrong if you happen to be from and/or love the Missouri small town that was just named a "must visit" by a national site. I'm just a little surprised by the choice of this one over others.

This is not a new question, but it's one that's taken on new meaning with the skyrocketing price of eggs. Can you have backyard chickens in Missouri cities? The truth is it's a more complicated answer than you might think. It depends on a number of factors.

Best to prepare for whatever the weather has planned for Tuesday night into Wednesday morning this week as the Hannibal, Missouri/Quincy, Illinois area is now in the middle of a winter weather advisory with increased snow totals now included.

Let's face it EVERYTHING costs more these days, but some things just downright have me scratching my head wondering why it's so expensive. Especially eggs.

There are so many rules regarding driving, but there is one rule that everyone who drives in Missouri should know. Do you need a front license plate in Missouri?

I want you to focus on the word "might" when I say what I'm about to say. Hannibal, Missouri and Quincy, Illinois MIGHT get a white Christmas after all. Here's another word to keep in mind. It's the word "maybe".

Many have been asking the US National Weather Service Chicago about the chances of seeing a White Christmas this year.
