APRIL 24TH, SUNDAY
** On the way back to the Munger-Moss Motel from Bennett Spring, we stopped at the Lebanon VFW. A Korean War veteran at the Senor Pepper's on Friday had told us this place was open on Sundays. We found a bingo session going on in the main hall and bypassed that to the bar. We find that bingo players can be really mean if you interrupt them.
** Before walking in, we looked at the marker to veterans killed in the line of duty in wars from World War I to the Persian Gulf out in front of the building. We saw the name of Charles Wrinkle, we were told a relative of Glenn Wrinkle, who operated the famous Route 66 Wrink's Market in Lebanon. Charles was killed in World War II.
** Watched the St. Louis Cardinal victory and there were sure a lot of friendly folks there.
** Back at the Munger-Moss, we sat out by the picnic table near Route 66 and talked with a couple from Williamsburg, Virginia, who were doing Route 66 on a motorcycle.
** Later, we went across 66 to the bowling alley for a couple.
