I have a brother in law that just bought a house in Stockton, Mo on the lake. He is in the process of getting the top floor remodeled. He is so incredibly generous, any family member can use it whenever we want. It is 2 hours outside of Branson, a little over an hour away from Springfield, and 1.5 hours south of Kansas City. We're excited to have this vacation option! Thanks, Scott. He and his wife just married 2 years ago, they are the sweetest, kindest, most generous people I know.

My sister, Deanne can't be forgotten, she has access to some condos that we use from time to time, it is a generous thing and not at all taken for granted. I wish I had something like this to offer to folks. I would be all over it!!! Now, to concentrate on winning that silly lottery!!
