2025 Late-Summer Road Trip - Day 22-of-35 - September 4, 2025

Thursday, Sept. 4, 2025 - East through Missouri - 147 miles ending up at Caroline and James in Chesterfield, MO:

We started the morning with a Great Breakfast at Ernie's in Columbia, Missouri:

We then walked south through the University of Missouri campus - not a cloud in the sky:

We reached their Museum of Art & Archaeology just after 10. I had visited their off-campus facility back in August 2017, but I'm really glad I can show this to Wendy

Hubert Robert - "The Hermit Frère Luce", probably before 1765 oil:

Jan van Goyen - "River Scene with Ruined Tower", 1637 oil:

Attributed to Antonio Joli - "Architectural Capriccio", 18" century oil:

Thomas Hart Benton - "Portrait of a Musician", 1949:

I got to see some fun architecture on my way back to my car:

That was a nice 2.38 miles walk - I got my steps!

We had time, so we visited the Missouri History Museum:

We made it to James's and Caroline's just after 3:

147 miles today (and 3 Post Offices). This is what they looked like:

More Nice Time with my Beautiful Bride! Thank you God for another wonderful Adventure Day!
