April 30 Hannibal Tour and dinner

Cousin Claude Monroe narrated a tour around Hannibal to show us (Carol, Linda, Phil, Nancy and me) the different places where his mom and dad lived and worked around the town Mark Twain made famous. The trip down "Memory Lanes" was full of informative and funny stories related to each stop. Claude is the consummate story teller, with a keen eye for relevant details and finding the humorous side of events.

The visiting Lanes were treated to a great dinner at Steve and Kathy's home. Their daughter Steffani drove up from Southeast Missouri State University to join us. We were happy that their other two daughters and children, who live in the area, were also able to be there. We had a great time visiting with family and enjoying a fantastic meal together.
