A replica of the steamboat's paddle wheel. Bryan Choisser and Bill Choisser. - We stopped to see Bryan, Bill's fourth cousin - in Columbia, Missouri. Larry's still interested in boots! - This was across the road - from where we met Bryan in Columbia. Inside the Catholic basilica in St. Louis. Note the golds and reds in the tile work.
More beautiful tile work. A close-up of the tile work. Another view of the ceiling done in red and gold tile. Pictures on the walls were also done in tile. The Gateway Arch in St. Louis. - We did not go up in it because there were - no windows except at the top and we figured - the ride would be as scenic as a BART ride to Oakland.
Rich Krechel.  We stayed with him - and he took us all around St. Louis! Choissers Janis, Bonita, and Bill in Harrisburg, Illinois. - Janis is Bill's first cousin and her mother Bonita is his aunt. A close-up of Janis, Bonita, and Bill. Bill finds a kindred spirit - who also has white hair on his face - in Bonita's dog! Choisser Street in Eldorado, Illinois. - Note that Larry is not the only one on this trip - to get photographed in front of arches!
