About where Branson billboards really begin to clutter U.S. 65 south of Springfield, a little road takes off east, winding through woods and pasture, passing cattle and crossing a creek.

A gravel drive then climbs to the new Huff place.

Just your typical 72,215-square-foot home. For reference, the White House is 55,000.
