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!

11. Nah. They moved.
That was back in 2007. They couldn't take the winters and the taxes.
