MOD NOTE: DBCC - I've taken liberty to make your post its own thread, and to move its contents to the Springfield/Branson subforum, as potential there for more specific help. Good luck.

I would suggest doing a real estate search on the Greater Springfield Board of Realtors site (multilist) at gsbor.com. Also try the Springfield Craig's List site. Those would be a good starting place.

lol, well, man, I do have a hankering for charm, and myself would go quite a fair peace to see such, but 250 some miles, on a daily basis?
Wow, there better be charm by the VERY big buckets there - just oozing out of the ground, wells, and air!
