6th Annual Mark Twain Corvette Show *PICS*
Here are some pics from the Mark Twain Corvette Show (Aug. 4th) in historic downtown Hannibal, Missouri. It was a great vette show, I think Mark Twain would have approved.

Car count was 137. It was their 6th annual show and it has grown each year. It's a great place for a car show. Antique stores, soda shops, good eating, shade most of the day, not alll but most.
The weather was overcast and it sprinkled some but just enough to cool it down a little. But boy was it humid.
Johnson 92, the OP, took himself a trophy home. His car is amazing and may just be my all time favorite C5. My wife really liked it as well and they are all "pretty" to her so that says something.
One of my buds from Columbia also took home a trophy. Me, not even honorable mention
There were some really great looking cars in attendance. One C6 Grand Sport owner came all the way from Lincoln Nebraska and another from Arkansas.
(I also found a chair someone left and turned it into kerlees Bar (spelling?) they said they would turn it over to the Mark Twain Club. It was a bag chair with crossed finishline flags if by chance it belongs to anyone here)

It was a very good show - a little warm, but the weather held off better than I expected. The OPs car is very, very nice and contrats to him for the award. And the quality of the cars there was outstanding - some real beauties.
