Demolition of Bull Shoals bridge getting near!

Forsyth MO. - Construction works and demolition experts were busy on Monday, October 15, 2018 getting the old bridge that spans Bull Shoals near Forsyth MO ready to be brought down. And while I'm not at liberty to disclose that actual date or time, I can state that it will be soon.

Sonic mini review! The All American Dog!

Forsyth MO. - Once in a while I develop a taste for a good old fashioned hot dog and when that happens I always think of the Sonic fast food venue located on the main Hwy 160 drag in Forsyth Missouri!

My only hesitation centered around the 'order box' where you can place an order in the drive thru lane. At times I've found it difficult to understand what was being said. On a few occasions, I just went ahead and repeated my order then drove forward, hoping for the best. Yes, it was that difficult to understand the little squeaky little voice coming out of that box! And yet, it was well worth the effort, as I could score an all American Hot dog and medium fries for only $4.31 including tax!

On this occasion, however, I breezed through the line, could clearly hear (see the short video) and was on my way in just a few short minutes!

Mintex Appliance Services!

Forsyth MO. - As my garbage disposal was making all sorts of noises, I looked around and heard about a company named Mintex that a few people had said performed excellent service. I gave them a call and was handled in a very professional manner. They also issued me a very complete quote. Technician/owner Chris Didlot arrived ahead of schedule and who was extremely courteous before getting right to work. Everything went smoothly and I was a very happy customer. Please, next time you need help with an appliance, give Mintex a call at 417-335-8308!

Forsyth Car and Craft Show - Oct 6,2018!

Forsyth Mo - The annual Forsyth Car and Craft show will be held at the town square near the court house on Saturday, October 6 from 9AM until about 2PM. There will be loads of beautiful cars to look at along with many vendors who will be displaying all sorts of crafts. Along with all that glam and glitter will be food vendors and live entertainment! The day is forecast as having a few scattered thunderstorms with a high near 85F. Winds will be SSW at 5 to 10 mph. So, there is no reason not to pack up the family and come on down to see the sights!

Update: I attended the event and while there were lots of cars and vendors, the place was a bit short of attendees as I found out that no one had apparently thought to really advertise the event ahead of time. That said, the one that did show up had a great time with lots of vendors present to browse through. I bought myself a bag of assort hot peppers from the vendor shown at right!

Oh, and before you go there, Peggy's Park Place Market, near the new Bull Shoals bridge, will be hosting a Customer Appreciation Day! They'll be handing out free hot dogs, chips and a beverage along with having a raffle for all sorts of great prizes! Folks, both these venues offer fun, excitement and good food so be sure to take some time out to have a last minute summer fling! Call the Chamber at 417-546-2741 for additional information.
