Springfield is the closest city, About an hour west on realy good highway (mostly 4 lane after you turn off 5 and 5 is a realy good 2 lane going north).
Springfield is were all the big colleges are but Drury has satalite classes in ava. Ava has a living square and a super wal-mart, two things not normally found in the same town.

I wouldn't suggest back roads to Springfield unless you want to be car sick! It is a nice small town with Wal-Mart and the proximity to Bull Shoals Lake as the highlights.

The down town square is full of businesses. Movie Theater, resturants, antique stores, clothing stores, Pharmacy with a soda fountain, tattoo parlor, lawyers offices, Farmers market on sat. morning, thats all I can think of off the top of my head.

When I went .. I dont recall seeing this area.. we drove around what I thought was the square ... there was a farmers market .. mostly plants being sold out of the back of pickem up trucks.
I know I drove down a street that had 3 Chinese restaurants on it... a family restaurant with a buffet ...
we stayed at the only hotel in town as well........
how did we miss all this?

LOL Must have been driving too fast. You drove right by everything I mentioned except the Pharmacy with the soda fountain. Its just off the sqaure. We only have 2 chinese resturants (one burned down).
