Hello SandDuneRider! I used ta spend quite a bit of time at Little Sahara! Now I drive 6 hours in the other direction for fun!

Just over the MO/AR line... so about 25 minutes.

We're about 350 miles away in Southern Illinois. West on Interstate 64 to St. Louis then southwest on I-44 to Springfield and the home stretch down 65 to Branson. We've made the trip so much I think I have every mile of interstate memorized. I still get excited though when I see the exit for 76 Country Boulevard!

I live in the Kansas City metro area. 3 hrs to Springfield and another 1/2 to the City.

It's crazy, but anytime I see a sign such as that it might as well say "Welcome home again" because that's how it makes me feel.

thats great ozark, should be a sign at the city right where they unload the trams/busses.

"WELCOME HOME" ,

That's how it feels...

This is to SDC Dave. Why yes i have been to both Chicken Mary's and Chicken Annies. My Family used to go to one or the other almost every payday when i was growing up . Although it has been awhile since i've been to either one even though I only live about 30 minutes from Pittsburg, both places have good food. I myself enjoy the Chicken Fried Steak. Let us know what you think when you go.

My granparents lived in Frontenac, KS. My grandpa was the principal of Westside Elementary in Pittsburg for years. We used to eat at Chicken Annie's and Chicken Mary's all the time. Very good food.

Last time I was at Chicken Annie's was last December at his funeral. I can't believe he's been gone for almost a year.

200 miles from Poplar Bluff, Mo. 3.5 hrs down US 60 and 65

Glad the put the Highroad in, saves about an hour being on 76

I live about ten minutes away from SDC.

Google says 311 miles, 5 hours 18 minutes to Branson.

But when we took that same route, with two adults and three kids in a full size conversion van, including stops for fuel and meals, it was more like 8 hours to our cabin in Kimberling City.
