The Grass is Always Greener...

Or so it seems....
I know the old saying doesn't really hold true, but Missouri does have some beautiful areas from the central to southern parts of the state.
A friend sent this to me - she took these photos of swamp land near Dexter, Missouri last weekend. I asked if I could post them - they are just too gorgeous NOT to share!

It's called Otter Slough (pronounced Slew) and I'm thinking a lil roadtrip is in order to experience this first-hand. Did you know Missouri not only has swamps, we grow cotton and rice too!

- Now, who'd a thunk the "Show Me State" was so diversified??
