We spent the day in Hannibal and even though you could see the evidence of the recent flooding, all of the shops were open and doing a thriving business. We walked around town and took pictures of Mark Twain's home (Samuel Clemens) and some of the other historical buildings. We watched the Mark Twain Riverboat go out on one of their excursions, but we decided not to go. It looked like rain and it did start raining shortly after it pulled out.
Carolee found a wonderful quilt shop and we spent quite a bit of time looking at the beautiful exhibits.
We made it back to Dale's around 5:30 and their son Chuck and his wife Angie and their daughter Olivia joined us for dinner. We had a wonderful time catching up on "stuff" and it was time to leave before we knew it. We are singing at their church tomorrow morning, so we have to be back in town early.
