My family went on a float trip to Eminence, Missouri and stayed at Eminence Cabins and Canoes http://www.eminencecanoescottagescamp.com/ . They
As we walked to the river from our cabin, we came across this fence shown below. Someone got creative and used recycled materials.
Eminence, Missouri is located on the Ozark National Scenic Riverways on the Jack's Fork and Current Rivers. This was a fun trip that we would gladly do again. We hope to come back to kayak and see more of the area. The landscape here is just beautiful and would be worth the trip to see during any season.

There is a new water tower being installed in Smithville, Missouri (North part of the Kansas City, Missouri metro). I have wondered what the structure is inside of a water tower and thought I'd share what I saw.
This is the closer view.
This is the water tower from a nearby hilltop. You can see the crane is attached to the middle part of the structure. This tower will hold 750,000 gallons. The scheduled completion date will be in November of 2008.

Our family went to the Lake of the Ozarks over a holiday weekend and stayed at the lake house. The water is pretty rough during the day but in the mornings, it can be smooth.
This is the view from the lakehouse and shoreline.
This is a great time to watch for herons. It was 7:30 in the morning and I spotted a Great Blue Heron near the neighbors catwalk. He was fishing.
If you look closely, you can see the fish dangling from his mouth. Look just below his beak, right under the catwalk rail.
The fish is right across from this spot.
I watched as he(she?) ate the fish.
Gulp!
You can see the heron has his mouth full. If you look closely in this photo, you can see the feathers that hang down on his chest.
I was lucky enough to get a few shots as the heron was flying across the water.
I snapped this photo right before the heron went behind the trees. These birds are amazing! I can't help but think of the flying dinosaurs such as Pterodactyls or Pteranodons when I see herons. (I was fascinated by dinosaurs as a child. Okay, so I still am.)

If only money grew on trees...
Did your property tax assessment go up last year? Are you paying higher property taxes?
We have found that some homes are assessed at a higher value than what that home might sell for-some homeowners have taxes much higher than their neighbors. This not only costs you money in over-paid taxes, but may make your house harder to sell! We'd like to help you save money on your taxes by telling you how to contest the assessed value! If you would like complimentary information about the market value of homes in your neighborhood and the average assessed value of homes similar to yours, give us a call! We will guide you through the process. Deadlines are:
Platte County: -April 1st-April 30, 2008
Clay County: -April 1st-April 30, 2008
in Missouri
Tell your friends & neighbors. We can help them too!

had this phone booth by the front office. Does this have personality or what? I didn't use the phone to see if it actually worked. :-)
