Mark Twain's Hannibal

My Tom Sawyer


Tom got a few helpers

On Thursday July 9th we played in Hannibal all day, went to Mark Twain Museum and homes, climbed the light house stairs over 200, had ice cream cones at Becky Thatcher's place, rode the twain express and while we were on it, the train broke(is that Murphy's law) so they gave us our money back. We drove out to the caves and lovers leap. We then went to River Park which has trails the lead down to the Mississippi River. Trent of course was the first one in. Then Spencer and then the girls. They really enjoyed wading and playing in the Mississippi River. We then went and have real Italian pizza at the Brick Oven. Great place for a date. We went back to the hotel the kids loved the hotel because they had the biggest indoor pool in the area and all kinds of table games like pool, hockey. Around midnight we picked Tara up from the St. Louis Airport. It was great to have her join us.
