My mom is from Hayti, Missouri. My dad from Grundy, Virginia. Yeah, I don't know how they met either.
Anyway, after the Army took us all over, KU Med recruited my wife so we've settled in Kansas just over the line from Missouri. Though she works for KU, ironically, my wife graduated from Mizzou.
Most of my friends, for whatever reason, live on the MO side of the border so I hunt and fish there a lot.
Missouri is definitely on the short list for retirement.
