A HUGE THANK YOU to the Clean Green Hannibal Team for their dedication to Hannibal. They can often be seen around town picking up trash and today was all about planting around the Tom and Huck Statue. If you see these folks out working, give them a shout of thanks!

It’s been a beautiful day in Hannibal for a riverboat docking! You still have time to go to the riverfront and see the American Melody. Go downtown, see the boat and then head up for the Mark Twain Boyhood Home & Museum's Music Under The Stars. Tonight’s music is blues by Maurice J. Vaughn, Freddie Dixon and John Watkins. Don’t forget to stick around to see the Show Me Hannibal attraction immediately after.

Let's get back to our downtown business challenge.
Your job:
1. Guess what business it is from the picture. It could be a random corner, product, signage, etc... 🕵️‍♂️
2. Tell me if you’ve ever been there 👍👎
While we said that no prizes involved, this business provided a little something to give out. This will go to the first correct answer and it must be a local person or can have someone pick it up at the Visitor's Center (we are unable to ship).
Let's see if this new picture is more of a challenge than the last one.
