I love the Mississippi and Missouri rivers. They've always made home feel like home. For many that aren't fortunate to live near them, scenic cruises provide an opportunity to experience them and one with many Missouri stops was just named one of the prettiest in America.
If you think your state has more snake-infested rivers than Missouri, you're wrong. Simple as that. I have proof that no state has more reptiles in rivers waiting to ruin your day than Missouri does right now.
I wouldn't go changing my plans because of this if I were you, but you deserve to know that a time traveler is warning Missouri about a nuclear power plant that he believes is about to explode and wait till you hear where it's going to happen and what he claims will be the aftermath.
I was born and raised in Missouri and have lived in the Show Me State most of my life and I can attest to the fact that my people talk a lot. I mean that as a compliment. However, there are a number of things you will never ever hear a Missouri person say. This is just the start of phrases you'll rarely if ever hear uttered within our borders.
I wish I had a nickel for every moment that I've sat on an overlook and meditated over these majestic rivers. They've been a part of my entire existence in this region yet new 2024 data now shows both Missouri and Illinois have the most polluted rivers in America.
