Two questions....
1)German singers?
2)Please tell me Ed Scanlon is going to enter the best legs contest.....
Funny, I clicked on that link and the website didn't indicate where Cole Camp, Missouri is.
Gosh, that is funny!
Did you think to maybe try the link that says "Click For Maps Of Cole Camp" ?
To Cole Camp: Take 50 Hiway east to Sedalia. At the Wagon Wheel Drive In (Hwy 65), turn right (after stopping in to have a "Gooberburger" of course. That's a must.) Go south to 52 and you're there. It's about 2 1/2 hours from KC.
I'm disappointed at the insult posted by you, Dan.
And it's hard to click a link one doesn't see. It's rather well hidden.
And websites for a town are never the best place to find where the town it, because they expect people visiting the website to already know. Wikipedia or Mapquest work better.
What insult?
Wikipedia and Mapquest are both great and very useful, but all the information anyone would need on Cole Camp and the surrounding area, including how to get there, is there on the town's website. I didn't have any trouble finding it.
Mapquest says 1 hr, 53 mins. I guess I was allowing Gooberburger time.
Patricia, I gotta ask: Gooberburger???
Aye, Danny. A hamburger with peanut butter on it. Famous at the Wheel Inn at the turn to Cole Camp. http://www.chowhound.com/topics/421496
Reading on down the post says they didn't close after all.
I hate to tell you all, but the original Wheel in Diner has been shut down to expand the highway.
