Dexter, MO

In years past, Ben and I commented on the roadsigns in Missouri for the town of Dexter.  However, it wasn't until this year, when I pulled out of Boomland and kept right on going on 57 rather than turn onto 55 that we actually came across Dexter, Mo. 

Our Dexter was very excited, of course, to see his name on huge signs.  At one point, I pulled over to the side of the highway and told Ben and Dexter to jump out, run over to the sign, and get a picture.  They did good. 

Too bad the unexpected excursion cost us an additional hour in the car but at least we finally got to see "Dexter, MO".
