We left Arkansas this morning. We did not feel the teeny earthquake in southeastern Missouri (blue dot near the town of Campbell) at six this morning - the New Madrid fault system has been having a bunch of very weak quakes lately. The ride back was long, but we did stop at the Missouri/Mississippi River confluence to visit the Camp Dubois (Lewis and Clark camp) historical site. I had visited it before (see the entry for April 18, 2009) and now my family could see it, too. That's a 15-stripe flag in the picture. I saw an 1802 map that spelled the Wisconsin River as the Ouixconsin River. Last pic is of a couple buzzards in the sky behind a cemetary - sort of creepy. We made it back home this evening. Good, long trip. Both glad and sad that it is over.
