Share A story in USA Today this morning about the fading of interesting American place names rang a bell with me. I’ve been a longtime grouch about real estate developers displacing homegrown American communities with fancy sounding, brand new towns with names like Saddlebrooke or Anthem and street names like Chantilly Lane and Venetian Way.
Spare me [...]

ShareA big thanks to the many Traveler readers who stopped by to say hi at the Let’s Go Fishing Show in Collinsville, IL. The three-day shop wrapped up today with great attendance despite unseasonably warm and sunny weather, when people could have been fishing instead of wishing.

For the last two years, I’ve been getting calls and text messages for one Joseph Rodriquez, who apparently had my old number before me. Some calls came [...]
ShareWe said this last month but it bears repeating: the new, electronic version of Traveler does not affect or replace the hard copy you receive in your mailbox each month.
Several subscribers who received email notice of their e-Edition access called to tell us they want to keep getting the hard copy in the mail.
We’re always [...]
Share There are storm chasers and there are storm chasees. Put me in that second group. On my monthly newsstand route yesterday, I dodged tornados all the way from Eminence to St. Louis. I don’t care to ever see another twister — even in a picture.
It started at 4:35 a.m. when the storm siren [...]
ShareCall it “gigabytes meets gig a fish.” We’ve found a company, Dirxion, just up the road in Fenton that is helping us makeTraveler available to online readers with exactly the same look and feel as our printed product.
