Men at Work

In and around Springfield it feels as is there is construction tie-ups. This is in front of one of the 5 buildings that are undergoing structural remodeling. The roads are also being smoothed out before the fall semester beings, around campus anyway. If you are headed to or through Springfield beware of the construction.

Siceluff Hall

This is Siceluff Hall on the Missouri State University campus. The history of this building according to the university's web page stated that "Siceluff Hall was built in 1927 and served as the University's first science building. In 1972, Siceluff Hall was extensively remodeled following the move of the sciences to Temple Hall. Named in honor of Dr. Harry Siceluff, longtime professor of English and Education." Currently most of the classes held in this building are general education courses.

Brangus Bull

Springfield may be a city of over a quarter million people, but the outskirts still have a very rural feel to them. This is one of the many bulls that has passed through the Springfield Sale Barn. If you were to see him in person he would be a small Angus, must be the Brahma in him.

Transit

During the school year this area is usually bustling with students and faculty trying to get to class on time. The transit system goes all over campus and to downtown on the weekends. I think the school does this so the students won't drink and drive after a little fun downtown.

Bluff

This is a common sight on Missouri waterways. This was taken out at Springfield Lake after it had rained for several days. I always go here to get a little relaxation when I can't get out of town.

This is one of many signs at the Springfield Lake. This sign is actually right on the road so not many fisherman see it.
