Sunset Watching

Personal Photo

Watching the sunset here in town is hands down one of the most relaxing activities. Seeing the sun go under the beautiful Ozark mountains... Nothing like it. Then later watching the stars appear in the sky. It is such a nice way to wrap up a summer night! This picture was taken a couple days ago out at Dewy Short! Beautiful.

Kayaking

Personal Photo

There are so many beautiful little rivers and creeks that you could take an all day float trip on with friends or family. Or, kayak some of taneycomo! We really do live in such a beautiful little town and it’s nature is not recognized enough! Go make some amazing memories on the lake! (But make sure to wear sunscreen while doin it)

Cakes and Creams Drive in Movies

The 50’s diner here in town has officially opened there drive in movie theatre. I don’t know about y’all, but my hopeless romantic self is ALL OVER the idea of watching a movie in the bed of a truck with friends (or your S/o if you are one of the lucky ones) with some good food and good vibes.

Mini Golfing

Lol. Yes. Are there like 50 million mini golf courses here in town? Yes. And have we gone to every single course multiple times? Also yes. But.. They are still fun! Right? Right. Get some friends together and go play some mini golf. Maybe go to dinner after? But... mini golf. Fo Sho.

Mountain Coaster

There are 2 mountain coasters here and honestly... They don’t get the hype they deserve. They are fun and refreshing on a hot humid branson day. The price is actually really reasonable... And after our locals discount? Yes please! Sign me up.

Regardless of COVID, I refuse to let that ruin my summer and be sad because of it. Things may look different here in town, which sucks. But, we can still have a good time here in the ozarks.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.
