Parks & Nature

This is great place, that is kind of off the beaten path. You can fish, walk, jog, bike, or simply have a picnic. There are at least 5 pond/lakes so you can feel somewhat secluded, however the city is not far away. There are also toilets located throughout the area.

Harry S. Truman was from this area and it is worth a trip to see his home and library. At the library they have a full scale reprical of the oval office. Also they have an activity where they have taken declassified documents from when Truman was president. You can look at them and then you can make the decision of whether to drop the A-bomb or the Berlin Airlift. It's very interactive museum!
