Today we drove into Missouri. My nephew Andrew Zorn is residing there at the University of Missouri doing medical research for them in the area of Alzheimer's disease. Hopefully someday he will find a cure to this horrible disease. He has several degrees but one he is pursing is in the field of Biophysics Engineering. He loves the field of medical research. We met him at a pizza place there within walking distance of the campus. We all enjoyed some pizza and soda and then we took him back to where he works (as it was about 102 degrees and no one was walking far) and saw his office. Wow! Amazing, just looking at the chalk board I could not understand any of it.

After our visit he mentioned to stop by this ice cream place. The Agriculture College students make the ice cream fresh from real fresh cow’s milk. Then we continued our journey west staying in Kansas at the Owls Nest Campground (Passport America campground) 50% off the current rate. It was a nice campground.
