Interesting

Battle of Athens sp is located in the northeast part of Missouri, a little out of way but worth the trip. We spent a good portion of the morning exploring the battle grounds and driving down by the Des Moines river. The campground is on the small side but at the time of our visit, empty. The sites were well maintained and overlook a nice pond and fields. Very quiet.
