Wednesday morning we began following the Mississippi River north. We stopped in Clarksville, MO and visited a maker of Windsor chairs. Like most woodworkers I have met, Ralph Quick was open about telling us about his work. We visited his shop and then looked at a few of the chairs he has made. His wife Caron finished the chairs with milk paint, a finish similar to what they used to use in the late 1700s.
We continued on to Hannibal, MO where we visited Mark Twain's (Samual Clemmens) home and took a ride on a river boat.
We spent the night in Injun Joe's RV Park in Hannibal.
