2012-07-18 Hannibal Mo


2012-07-18 Hannibal Mo

The Mississippi is wide and deceptively slow moving here


 
Of course there are lots of Mark Twain sites to look at
including the Law office of Clemons' father



Sam's father must have worked a lot of Pro Bono cases
At least from the looks of Samuel Clemons boyhood home
Someone beat us to white washing the fence but we were in time to see a band setting up 
for an in the square concert
 

Cute little downtown store fronts
We tried a bar & grill on the south side
That was wasted money and the beer was NOT cold
Enjoyed looking through some of the shops
I wonder how many people under 30 have even read any of Mark Twain's Stories






The damn at Mark Twain Lake COE

Like many areas in the Midwest this year
Rain has been hard to come by so
the lake is very low
TaTa for now
Cya soon
