Day 27 we left KC and headed across the Missouri River to Independence, MO and to the Presidential Library of Harry S Truman. This was a real treat. We ended up spending almost 3 hours there. The kids were more engaged than I anticipated. Well done place complete with a Harry Truman look alike that made me do a double take. After a quick stop at the Truman home we started across Missouri and I 70. Halfway across is Columbia, MO and the University of Missouri. We did a short tour of the campus. Looks a little like Auburn. We arrived in St. Louis around 7pm, watched a little TV and turned in for the night, we had an early departure.
