The final leg of our journey...

After visiting in Kentucky, we drove through Illinois and back into Missouri!

Boy was I pleased when it was my turn to drive and we headed straight into St. Louis...Doug did a good job taking pictures though:
That evening we got to Hannibal and got to visit with John, Sue and Joel...and see some of the town, it is fun and has cool old buildings. Here is a statue of Mark Twain and Huck Finn...not sure if those are spelled right!

We took some pictures in a pretty little garden in the middle of town, here we are with Joel...

And later that evening at the ball game...Joel really dressed out for the game!!! (j/k, that's not really him)
We had a really good time...
Doug and Uncle John...
After church, we went out to a yummy Mexican place and enjoyed time with family before we had to drive south again...
Doug enjoyed the hats...
Back at Doug's dad's house, he was able to finish up with one of the projects they had started...here they are building some stairs and trying to kill each other...
After it was done, it seems they made up... It was such a wonderful trip, we are looking forward to next year when we will have more time to visit with everyone!
