More From Missouri

Last month I did a post about a trip my sister in law and I made to Missouri. 

We were looking for just the right cupboard for her kitchen and we

found it in Ozark MO. 

There's more than just antiques in Ozark...

there's 

LAMBERT'S.

Lambert's is known as the 

Home Of The Throw'd Rolls.

I have to say that it's one of the busiest and best places

I have ever eaten and I have never been there

where I didn't have to wait in line. 

This visit was no exception.

While we waited out front with the rest of the crowd

we saw 

this...

Isn't she a beauty! 

This beauty is a 57 Chevy Cameo.

Somehow I don't think she'd like living on a dirt road in the country.

After we had  our lunch in Ozark we headed to Springfield Mo.

to the biggest Antique Mall that Donna and I had

ever been to.

We were in Antique Heaven!

I wish I had a house large enough to hold all of these pine pieces.

Can you imagine that table in a big old farmhouse!

How about this wonderful butcher block!

More beautiful pine pieces. See the length of that table?!

Isn't this a different finish for a stove. I like that green mixing bowl too.

Donna and I both thought this cupboard was interesting.

It would work great in a kitchen or a bathroom

or where ever.

Loved the handle detail.

I always wanted a Hoosier cabinet

Love this coffee grinder.

How about the detail on this table leg!

By the time we were through the antique mall we were starving and beat

so we headed to McDonald's for a ....

....then we headed home.

We had a WONDERFUL time.

On the way we passed a few of these as we drove along the south edge of

Joplin Mo.

We decided to pull off the highway and see if we could see a bit of the damage

left by the tornado.

It was September 11th

approximately 3 1/2 months after the tornado hit.

I will post pictures later.

We are having a dust storm here on the farm....it looks like the 'dirty 30's'!

Please someone send rain!!!

I hope your weekend is a good one.
