Have you checked United Country Realty online? That's where I found my
little piece of paradise last year. They had some very interesting
listings in Missouri. I seem to remember lusting after one that was a few
acres and in my price range (dirt cheap) and with some river (or creek)
frontage.

just want to have some bees for honey for my mead, some a small
grove of fruit trees, some grape vines, an area for gardening for my
wife and her gourds of course, and some place down by the river to have
a fire in the evening and hear the water running by. We also want
enough acreage to maintain our privacy.

There are several boondocking groups, I am the moderator of one. There are
many places to park. You mentioned wally world and flying J, both of which
I have used. Love's is a little less RV friendly but they do have dump
stations. I am also a member of Escapees and some of its members allow
overnight stays. I spent almost two weeks on a farm in Missouri during
which I built some things. There are lots of places to park for short term
and I have a few more invitations waiting.
On the other hand I am looking for a place to buy some cheap land to park
the trailer and build a shop. The where is currently wide open.
