Stonehenge and the Forty-Eighth!

2016 Out West, Featured, Missouri, Road Trip

Today we completed our 48th state visit in our T@B since July 2013! Our rule is that at a minimum we must stay overnight and do something fun while in the state. Last night we stayed near Lebanon MO and today we visited the Stonehenge at Rolla, a half-scale replica of the late Neolithic structure in England. This replica was constructed of granite using high pressure water jets on the campus of Missouri University of Science and Technology. It was an impressive experience that really gave us a feel for the astronomical aspects of the design of the original.

    Congratulations on #48! I fully expect that during the miles of driving you two have considered adding #’s 49 and 50?
