Protesters, young and old, held signs, some simple and homemade, some that looked professionally printed, and drivers honked from cars passing by outside of Rep. Russ Carnahan’s office on Bailey Rd in Crystal City.  Annette Rey was quick to explain the flagpole she held with the American flag hung upside-down.   “It was from our history, our naval history,” she said.  “When a ship was in trouble they hung their flag upside-down.  It was a symbol of distress, and it is my opinion that America is in distress.  Our republic is threatened.” 

Crowds flocked through the sprawling carnival, riding for thrills and questing for giant plush trophies in aisle-after-aisle of games at the Jefferson County Fair Thursday through Sunday.  Fans filled the bleachers of the Edward Jones Arena for the tractor pull, demo derby, and sky diving events.

FESTUS –Police are asking for information about a Sunday morning robbery. On Sunday at approximately 3 a.m. the Walgreens Pharmacy was robbed of an undetermined amount of prescription narcotics.  The suspect is a white male, 5’ 9” 220 lbs who was wearing a dark hoodie, hat and dark jeans. 

I paid my deposit down at the St. Louis Boat show back in Feb. of 04.  Bud Dickson of Canoe Canada Outfitters, had a booth at the show & offered all kinds of fishing trips, bear hunts and moose hunts.

I had also talked to another friend of mine, Larry Woodard and Larry said this place(Canoe Canada Outfitters) was a sleeper.   I had hunted there for moose before and was successful with a 32-inch bull, not a trophy by any means but a Bull Moose with a bow! I wanted a 50-inch Bull, however since I had never shot a bull moose before with a bow and I know the meat is excellent I took the shot. It’s not wise to pass up a shot with a bow as it really isn’t that easy to harvest a bull. The country is rough, wet, boggy, and the weather changes daily.
