Festus

There have been very recent reports of a bear near Festus, Missouri over the last few weeks and that has sadly led to a confirmation that a vehicle struck and killed one of these animals on I-55 this week in that area.

When you live in Missouri, you never know what you might see out of your window. For one man in the Show Me State recently, that sight was a bear who was casually strolling by in Festus.

One of my family's all-time favorite movies is Back to the Future. I also was born and raised in Missouri. Those two facts are incompatible as I've learned that there is no way that Back to the Future would have worked if it had happened in Missouri. Please allow me to explain.

I've seen some unique stories about how families made home for themselves before, but never one quite like this one. It's a Missouri family who bought a cave on Ebay and turned it into their own underground home.

There is exotic and then there's EXOTIC. This is that 2nd one. It's a 25 acre Missouri horse ranch in Festus that even has its own basketball court.

Don't you hate it when you head out to fight crime and something keeps you from being the superhero you know you are? That happened to a Missouri guy recently as he was all set to go out and be Spiderman until a seat belt foiled him.
