Being the mom to 3 boys, I have learned cleaning your house while your kids are still growing up is like shoveling the walk before it stops snowing.

Hannibal Day

Dominic wanted to see a cave before school started.  We decided to have a "day before school" adventure and went to Hannibal.  Here the boys are outside the Mark Twain Cave.
Here they are inside the cave.  We took the first tour of the day so we were privledged to see several bats.  By the end of the tour, the boys thought the cave was a little too cold.




 We also took a river boat tour.  I thought this was great - the boys thought the boat went too slow!  Here is Luke covering his ears as the pilot blew the whistle signaling us to leave the dock. 


Once back in the historic district, we took a tour on the "clopper".  This is a horse drawn buggy ride.  We all liked this.

After our ride, the boys were able to feed "Barney" corn and apples.  Barney even posed for this picture!
