Football Season is upon us

College Football. Yes, it is that time again. Cannot wait. MIZ....

Pinnacles Field

Found this photo from my archives today while doing some housekeeping. This field is on the ridge above the Pinnacles Youth Conservation Area, north of Columbia. This park is a cool place for an afternoon hike, picnic or walkabout. The 80 foot spire of limestone that remains is quite a site to see. Any only 15 minutes north of Columbia!

Strongman Steve

Strongman Steve Schmidt performs at the 2010 Missouri State Fair in Sedalia. As a part of Rural Missouri's 'People from our pages' exhibit in the Missouri Electric Cooperatives' Building. Check out more of the Strongman at www.steveschmidtmo.com.












Governor Jay Nixon even stopped by to see his amazing tricks. He bent a draft horseshoe for him.


He then bent another shoe into a heart for the first lady Georganne Nixon.
