St. Louis and Potosi are totally different worlds. I have a few friends from college who are originally from near Potosi, and I went to a wedding over there once. Although it is closer to St. Louis, it feels a lot more isolated than were I grew up in south central Missouri. One of my friends dad's commuted from south of Potosi to the Ford plant in St. Louis every day for work. I also remember going to the Huddle House in Potosi near the end of a night of drinking (this was after my friend's wedding), and having the cook randomly show me some bullet wounds on his arm which he claimed to have gotten working as a security guard somewhere in East St. Louis....random memories, haha, but it made for an interesting night.
