Labor Day weekend came and went, and it was the best three-day weekend I can remember.  I had an awesome time with family and friends.  For those who don't know, the Pilot Grove Picnic is the best kept secret in our area. It's a home-cooked picnic, and I mean fried chicken, homemade sides and all of the pies, cobblers and cakes you can imagine...

According to a new survey conducted by 60 Minutes/Vanity Fair, the least impressive U. S. landmark is the Gateway Arch in St. Louis.  The rest of the bottom five are the Alamo, Mount Rushmore, the Grand Canyon and Niagara Falls.  There seems to be a flaw in the survey.

Kids, I know a lot of us had some fun over Labor Day weekend.  Well, some people just didn't have a good ol' time after all.

I've never been a soccer fan.  Soccer moms didn't exist when I was growing up.  The sport was just taking hold in the U.S. as I graduated high school.  So when a friend of mine invited me to a Sporting Kansas City game against the Toronto FC, I was a little worried that I wouldn't enjoy it.

We're looking for the best trail cam photos in Mid-Missouri!  We know you've been looking for that big buck, and if you've found one, we want to see it.  Send us your 2012 trail cam photos for your chance to win a brand new trail cam and other great prizes!

The weather is great and the archers are all getting ready for bow season.  I'm stoked, I've been seeing a lot of good bucks and great does.  As a member of PETA... that's People Eating Tasty Animals, I like to fill my freezer with the does.  They're tasty and really healthy for you.

Yesterday I asked which restaurants you would like to see come to Sedalia.  There was certainly no shortage of answers.  Overall, 20 different franchises were mentioned.  Here are the top five:

We've covered shopping, so let's continue the pipe dream by bringing some new restaurants to town.  There was much excitement recently with the opening of Panera Bread Company and Freddie's Steakburgers, and we already have some great places to eat, but there are a few places that would be pretty great if we had them in town.

I was driving down Grand shortly after 7 p.m. and noticed some Sedalia Police cars and an ambulance at the intersection with 14th.   A Chevy pickup truck struck a the corner of 1400 S. Grand just moments before.  I did not get an opportunity to speak with the driver or authorities.
