Ozarks Angel

Ozarks Angel was created in 2005 and ran for 2 years before going dark. It was resurrected in 2019 of its own volition. Some older pieces with current relevance are re-posted now and then. Springfield, Missouri, where Ozarks Angel lives, is home to Bass Pro Shops, Assemblies of God International Headquarters, Missouri State University and Cashew Chicken.
