Lost child safely back at home

Earlier today, the Clinton police department was working diligently to get this lost child back to her parents and after many Facebook shares, along with other information received, she is now safely back home.

Thanks to everyone who helped. 

Sunshine today?

 

Depends where you are:

Clouds look to break in KC this morning, but not completely. Partly sunny skies should make for a slightly warmer day than West Central Mo., for example, where cloud cover probably hangs around all day today.
