The town of Seymour is small, but like a lot of Springfield the whole area is spreading out. This is my brothers home in the country, not far from the town, but quite and peaceful
There are a lot of little things that can be appreciated in Springfield area. The town has grown to a size that makes it almost unmanueverable because traffic comes to s stand still in many areas. They have every fast food and chain restaurant you could dream and a couple of good local choices to eat-like Crazy Horse.
It may be one of the local specials now -but still competes with down home gravy and biscuits a way down the road a piece
- Pros:A good town to still raise the kids.
- Cons:TAkes forever to get places due to the traffic
- In a nutshell:Springfield is now a traffic mess-many shops and retail

I’ve heard about Branson and the once-famous country singers who perform there, but I didn’t know they had made a full-size replica of the Titanic – thousands of miles from the nearest ocean!
Actually it seems a bit macabre to me, since my grandfather would have gone down with the Titanic if he hadn’t changed his booking at short notice:
"Salon organ with extra revolving drums" - Bruchsal Things to Do Tip by Nemorino
Very interesting tips! Good work Bruce.
The caverns sound interesting with canoeing and all the rides. Throwing rolls around for your clientelle to catch is a strange sort of entertainment.
Ive heard of Wilsons Creek! we watched some great civil war documentaries back home and would love to see more sites -not just fab landscapes - that the USA has.
