Ahh, well, It's not the first or last time I've been wrong!Actually, believe it or not, Smithville is probably closer to us than Cedar Hill. Smithville is about 156 on RT 36 and Cedar Hill is about 196 miles if we were to go via Columbia. Macon. Cedar Hill is closer to La Plata in size though I do believe.
We fled IL about 5 years ago and have never regretted it one bit. We LOVE Missouri.
What is Republic near?From Republic, MO just started this chicken thing about 5 weeks ago. I can't wait till they start to lay eggs!
