Remind me to never buy a house near an airport. An Illinois family was shocked when they heard a huge boom in their yard only to learn that it was an emergency slide that had fallen off of a huge airplane.
Note to self. Next time you take a drive on this Missouri interstate, make sure to bring some containers along. Don't ask me why. Oh, yes it does have something to do with the fact that this Missouri roadway was just named the worst stretch of road for potty breaks in America.
Those that have visited this Illinois place will tell you there's no place quite like it. That sentiment is now confirmed by the internet as multiple sites have declared it as one of the prettiest small towns in America. One says it's the 3rd best in the US.
Have you ever wondered what inspired the first roads to be built? The oldest roadway in Missouri came into being thanks to a mine and it's named based on a landmark travelers needed to find their way over 280 years ago.
It would take a lot for me to love an airport. I've gone through enough in my life, it's almost always a dreaded trip. However, there is a new airport in Kansas City that might just change my mind now that I've been able to see how fancy it is inside.
Please don't take this the wrong way, but I was a little surprised when I learned that both Quincy and Nauvoo had been named two of the "most charming" towns in Illinois. I'll attempt to explain why.
If you enjoy travel and have children, it's good to know that two of the best destinations for families just so happen to be in Missouri according to a new international ranking.
