Leaving Missouri I stopped off at the Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn statue.

Up the road a bit is the humble birthplace and museum of the Titanic’s Unsinkable Molly Brown.

Compared to Amelia Earhart‘s wealthier beginnings. This is her birthplace in Atchison Kansas.

The Airbnb I am staying in Mayetta Kansas has twinkling fireflies or lightening bugs as the locals call them. The only other time I have experienced these magical creatures was when I lived on the farm in Brasil. Unfortunately I couldn’t capture them with a photo.
