It’s Economical!

First of all there is so much beautiful scenery to see in Missouri that just a ride down any road will surely entice you to want to see more.

There are 88 State Parks and Historical sites in Missouri and many National Historic markers not to mention all the attractions that aren’t operated by government entities. Entrance to Missouri state parks is free. Some activities have nominal fees but you can enjoy them essentially for free.

It’s Inspiring!

You never know when inspiration will strike. Especially when you take your children along. Inspiration hides in unsuspecting places. A young boy or girl might be inspired to become a world renowned author after a visit the Laura Ingalls Wilder home in Mansfield, Mo. or a visit to our state capital may inspire someone to become a politician who will change the world.
