Round Robin Photo Challange #2 Entry... Historic Hanibal, MO.. home of Mark Twain

Here is my second entry for Villiage and my modivation to get my travel pics off my memory card so I can clear it.  This was from this summer when I took a trip up to Wisconsin with my mom.  We stopped very briefly in Hanibal,MO.. about 90 miles from where I live now.  I loveeeeeeeee all these old buildings and the stories behind them.  Maybe next time I will trek up to the light house and get some good long shots.

    I enjoyed the pictures. I'd love to stroll through some of those old buildings. And by the way, I was born in Wisconsin. Haven't been back there since I was three years old. Well, did pass through it several times on the truck.

    Beautiful pictures.  That looks like the kind of place I could lose myself in.

    Now it can be told - several key elements of Liftlabeth, the village where my first novel begins, were heavily influenced by my brief stop in Hannibal in 1986.  I never did get the full "tour" of the place - until now, that is!  Thanks! - Karen

    Hanibel is one of my earliest childhood memory vacations! I grew up "next door" in Kansas! I don't remember a lot, but there are bits and pieces. I remember going into the caves and being scared I'd get lost (very reasonable for a 3 or 4 yr old!). My mom has a lot of fun pictures of there, that I love looking at! Plus I was darn cute at that age! LOL
