23 April 2026 Hermann: Off to Hermann a Small Town Missouri

 



We took off from St Louis early so we could meet Lisa and Jeni for lunch in Hermann.  The St Louis hotel we were staying at had a big breakfast buffet and there were several VEX robotic teams there stocking up for the big world championships.  The drive was pretty easy but I-70 was almost entirely one big construction site.  We had lunch at Sharp Corner, burgers and fries. Then we got into our Air BnB and got settled.  I popped into the bank on yet another attempt to get the double authentication system working.  We popped into the local supermarket and then we headed up to Matt's house.


The world championships!
