Hannibal, Missouri

So, it's supposed to be almost 80 today, so we decide we'll head to Hannibal, MO, the home of Mark Twain. Paul and I put on our shorts and sandals. We laughed at Yulia when she put on long pants and a jacket. Well, she was right. The temperature didn't get above 58 on May 24, thank you very much, and we froze our Barry batoozkies off.

Still haven't figured out how to turn the pictures right side up.

In front of Huck Finn's house.


In front of Becky Thatcher's house.


Mark Twain's boyhood home is the white house on the right. Note the white picket fence that Tom and his friends painted.



I was driving on the way home. Got lost. Seems Paul Barry has gained such notoriety in these parts that they've named a town after him!
