My little town of residence is Bourbon, Missouri with a population of 1,524 currently. I bought my place from my stepdad in 2005 and I'm happy with where I live. Everything you need is close by and St. Louis is 60 miles away. This old pic of the Town Tavern from 1933 tells everything about the town. How it was named and came to be. Since 2005 I've probably been in that tavern 4 times or so. I keep to myself when not at work and I'm usually home.
