After leaving Springfield, Mo., we drove northeast to where the Mississippi joins the Missouri River. Our first stop was St. Louis where we had a number of side trips and then our first encounter with the Louis and Clark trip. A week later we drove north to Kansas City where we had more side trips and then our first “beyond Louis and Clark” stop at Fort Leavenworth, just across the Missouri River, at the Frontier Tribute Museum in Kansas.
Can’t wait to get further north along the Missouri where we’ll learn more about these 2 men, the Corps of Discovery, and their amazing adventures.
