Strange looking equipment located at Hwy 160 and Y!

 


 

Forsyth MO. – After one of the more observant Taney County residents noticed device attached to a pole at the intersection of Y and Hwy 160 in Forsyth. Curious about it myself, I made an effort to contact a city official to see what was what.

Matt Wheeler, of the Taney County Sheriff's police, informed me that the ‘antenna’ belonged to MoDot and that they were doing a study of road traffic.

It was good to know that these good folks are on the job!

Questions concerning Bull Shoals and two parks!

 


Forsyth Mo. - As March of 2021 was drawing to a close, the status of two popular are parks near the town of Forsyth Missouri remained open to question!

River Run, a parks controlled by the government and Shadowrock Park, a recreational area leased from the government stand apart from each other by a narrow body of water. One is partially flooded while the other, graced with a bit of height, stood high and dry. The question, in my mind, on March 30th, was one of water levels... will they rise on April, fall or stay the same?

Where's air for you car when you really need it?

Sometimes it's the little problems that can become very big problems. Such as not being able to add air to a underinflated tire.

Forsyth MO. - One morning, after getting into my Jeep to go drive to a local store, I noticed that a low tire icon had lit up on my dashboard. At the time I wasn't very concerned as the town where I lived had two air stations; one at a Conoco station and one at a convenience store called Casey's.

I tried the Casey's location first, only to find an out of order sign taped over the unit. Then, a trip over to the Conoco station (aka the White Oak) also proved fruitless, as while the unit worked and took $1.50 in quarters, it provided less air pressure than I could have, using just my lungs! Money and time both wasted.

The solution to my problem manifested itself in the form of a local dealership known as The Kar Lot and an auto specialist by the name of David Scobee who is a 'can do' and 'no problem' sort of professional. The dealership is located at 16099 Hwy 160 Forsyth, MO 65653 and can be reached by calling 417-546-8484 during regular business hours.

Please consider giving them a call the next time you need service or if you might be interested in getting yourself a new ride!
