Caprock Leatherneck, SASS #54382 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Planning a driving trip from St Louis to Minneapolis this summer, along the Mississippi River. Need ideas on any out of the way places to stay, including motels and points of interest, eating places etc. Planning about about 100 miles a day for a week. Thanks Caprock Leatherneck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trailrider #896 Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Don't know what it is like now, but Hannibal, MO, where Mark Twain was born and featured in his books, "Tom Sawyer" and "Huckleberry Finn" was a place I visited as a kid, and later, in 1964 on my way to AFROTC summer camp.

JD Lud Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I like Dubuque IA, Galena IL, or Prairie Du Chien WI. One should surely get some Spotted Cow when in Wisconsin. Spook Cave campground in McGregor has some cabins and we loved camping there. Also some casinos along the way if into that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
