Road Trip to FL - Day 6

After spending the night it Topeka, KS we headed for St. Louis. On our way we stopped at a few church history sites - Liberty Jail and Independence, MO. After visiting the sites for a few hours we headed to the famous St. Louis arch or gateway to the West. We had a nice relaxing day and it was really neat to visit Liberty Jail where Joseph Smith spent about 127 days. We also drove over the bridge from St. Louis and entered the state of Illinois, but we didn't get a pic of the state sign.

Welcome to Missouri!
Here's Daddy and the kids in front of the sign at the jail.
Here's Megan and Daniel in the play area at the Independence visitors center. I think they would have made fine pioneers!
Megan and Daniel thought this Christis was pretty cool.
Here is Steen in front of the archway in St. Louis.
The kids are all tucked in and ready for bed after another long day in the car!
