Sculpture and cannon balls

 Today was art day.  We found a variety of sculpture in Kansas City.  The world's largest cap gun, a large button and needle, a bison skeleton and Mark Twain.


The library parking garage is painted with book titles.

And we found the giant shuttlecocks at the Donald J. Hall Sculpture park,

Back on the road east.  We stopped for our kitchzy stop of the day to see a Civil War cannon ball wedged in the courthouse column during the battle of Lexington.

A drive through the country to arrive in Columbia for the night.  A dinner at Broadway brewery and a stroll around the University of Missouri campus to see the famous columns, the original grave marker of Thomas Jefferson and the Beetle Baily statue.

Turning in early for hiking the Pinnacles tomorrow before it gets too hot.
