Hannibal,
Missouri. America's Hometown. This is where Mark Twain grew up. Tom Sawyer's and
Huckleberry Finn's adventures happend here as well.
Not far away from Main Street is Mark Twain's home located.
View from Lover's
Leap of the frozen Mississippi River. The old Mark Twain bridge is being pulled down.
16A
Paulina Drive. Our Town House in Hannibal. It's small and nice.
Rose
with her new computer. Every day she's looking for e-mails, and she's writing a lot as
well.
The
kitchen is new, as the previous tenant had a fire.
Rose's dream: A 4WD
SUV Ford Explorer. Some years old, but still in good shape.
My
nightmare: I had to shave my beard. It's a safety policy at BASF Hannibal that no beards
are allowed at the site. With time, we became accustomed to Gundolf's face without a
beard. In addition, I also got a new name here: At BASF they call me "Gus"
("Gundolf" is too difficult for many Americans ...)
