What I like about St. Louis ... and Missourri
 

The Cards, running in Forest Park, Central West End - a cute strip of shops and bars and big, historic houses, Clayton and Ladue, Union Station, Sundeckers, canoeing on the rivers, the loft district, the Chocolate Bar, Harrys and JBucks, the Hill, McGurks and Soulard, Mardi Gras celebration ... I could go on ...

St. Louis is no Chicago or LA, but it is a great blend of city life tucked into the heart of the Midwest. Its downfall ... there's no beach.

Herman
 

One of my sisters is from Herman, MO.....that's random that y'all know about it! I didn't think people actually "lived" there lol or have heard of it. :D

Missouri is alright I guess... Out of all the places I've lived... It's not the worst... but I really would like to move back to TX.

go square states!
 

I'd just like to cheer on all my girls rooting for the Midwest!

I grew up in KC and always have a good time going back. I've lived on both coasts but will always have a soft spot in my heart for home, the Chiefs, and the Jayhawks. Go KU!!

I always got so angry when people refer to the Midwest as "fly over country." So disrespectful and ignorant.
