This one is a three thread post. First comes the explanation of the backtrack, followed by roots growing into red city hell soil, then roots growing deeper still. Although I am disappointed that the DUmmie didn't manage to see their trek come to fruition, at least they are somewhere that their vote will be diluted by a sea of red:

Finally back in Wi-Fi but due to a sad reason
We had to double back due to my Husband's Dad has passed away. We did not want to go back to Joplin, we decided to stay in Springfield Mo to get the paper work and funeral planed.
How ever we have seen some coll stuff in Kansas. Did you know that Kansas have wild Turkeys? They did not like the sound of the camera so I had to use Video so they would not hear the camera and run.
I am trying to find a way to up load the film since my laptop cam not read the mini DVDs.
Watch as the DUmmie begins to grow roots in evil red city hell:

I think I am falling in love with Springfield!
This city is awesome! And I haven't even seen a quarter of it yet!
This place is easy to travel from too! it has a Greyhound bus line as well as a national airport! I have taken a look out of curiosity at the apartment prices here and they are not bad at all! Why have I never looked at this city before? And it is so liberal for a city in SW MO!
The tumbleweeds blowing around in the parking lot at the county's local Democrat Party HQ last November makes your statement only that much more absurd.

17. Bass Pro Shops is one of the most fascinating stores I have ever seen.
Agreed. I'm going there tonight to pick up some more ammo.
The roots get deeper still:

You will not believe what I found today!
A grocery store with a bar in it! I kid you not! It is called the Bistro by Price Cutter. It also has a large buffet in it ans some fantastic Gelato! It even had a Starbucks! And it had all the other stuff that you would expect in a grocery. It was great! The people are so friendly and helpful. It was the wildest thing I ever seen.

6. That's awesome...may have to move to Missouri!
Besides, I hear that Missouri loves company.
Boy, I've never heard that one before. I'll be sure to have my "tornados" machine up and working by the time you think about coming out here.
