We promise that the home is within a 30 mile radius of Columbia, Missouri and as you will see on the map, there are many small towns to check out. Any one of those will give you an idea of where you will be living.  Each little town is unique in its history and amenities but similar in being full of hard working families making a life for the future.  We want this for you and to start the ball rolling and show our faith in this process, we have begun moving, but there are house sitters, keeping everything safe. We look forward to meeting you – waiting for your stories . . .</li> </ul></blockquote>
