Neither. I'm a New Englander. Y'all.
I drove through part of Missouri during a trip to Arizona in 2001. It was night time, thunder storms raging and tornado warnings on the radio. Couldn't see shit, whether I was driving into a twister or away from them all. Nervous as hell, alone, really didn't want to be there. I never felt so out of my realm.
Every time I drive through Missouri some bullshit happens. Weather usually. That’s why I call it misery. Some parts are pretty though.
I was "this close" to being terrified that night. I'd still love to see the state in the daylight! I'd really like to see Cape Girardeau, Rush Limbaugh's childhood home town. That would be very special to me.
I grew up in a small town about 10 mins outside of Cape Girardeau. There's lots of old architecture near the river, but sadly large portions of Cape are becoming a ghetto due to all the niggers moving out of St Louis. I haven't lived in the area in about 2 decades, but that area will always be home on some level. There's shootings every weekend these days.
