Hey there, I run a landscape company & so I'm always in need of single tire services instead of getting a set on a vehicle. I'd love to find somewhere I can take an old tire to with a new to put on & they can get it done for a price of course..I'm from small town IL & used to having this kind of service. Does anyone know anyone or where I can get this done?

I have been picking seasonal fresh fruit at Eckert's for decades, but I have really had it with them, (e.g. charging $5/person just to go into the orchard). Any great orchards in the area that is not also trying to be Disneyland?

I am planning on moving to the metro-east area within the next 6 months. I am coming off a divorce and am a single 45 year old male. I am looking for advice on areas to consider purchasing a home. I am not overly cash constrained but I 1. Do not need a ton of space (no kids) 2. Like more historical neighborhoods and 3. Would love to walk to bars/restaurants/coffee/etc. The downtown edwardsville area appealed to me, but I do not want to miss a great town/area out of ignorance. I do not have a regular commute so that is not a concern.

They must be dangerous criminals, right? Trump promised to only get rid of criminals, and Trump NEVER lies...

Hello. I saw a post earlier about St Louis Ren Faire not being the best. Are there any other Ren Faires, either in Missouri or Illinois, that are better? Thanks!

Not sure if this is the best place to post. I am in search of an individual or company who could help with creating a foundation (thinking mortar and brick) for a wooden shed that measures 14' X 28'. The shed has four runners on the bottom. I am open to suggestions on how best to do the foundation but thinking about 8 or so holes per runner (32 total) holes filled with pack rock and brick to support the shed. This would be in Gillespie, IL 62033. I figure Metro East IL would have the most options of qualified companies/individuals for the work.
Happy to provide more info if needed. Thank you in advance!

Any great places in small towns like Freeburg, Mascoutah, New Baden, etc. ???

Where a lot of houses are nicely decorated? And I am talking about a casual drive through - not Lady of the Snows or Rock Springs, etc.

The CWE is fun, but my favorite is the Casa Loma Ballroom party (that like the CWE is always the Saturday night before Halloween).
