Kindness is the language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see …Mark Twain …always been a fan of the man .great job guys and thank you for having the time and interest in this great American. Be safe out there…
'If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.' I am such a fan of Samuel L. Clemens's, (Mark Twain's). He had so many words of wisdom. I can't pick a favorite book. Obviously, as I wrote, I'm a huge fan of his. I thought I knew a great deal about Mark Twain, but I just learned so much more. I have never been to Hannibal, MO. Now, I want to go. You look like you had the places to yourselves. ***Thank you, so much, Andrea and Steven. You did a phenomenal job. You had my attention from beginning to end. 🏡🙏🏻🎊🌞👏🏻👏🏻💛
@@rhondaz356 so glad you enjoyed this video Rhonda. I loved doing the research and exploring the properties and area. Would love to do a lot more of these types. We do have a few lined up but unfortunately we don’t get many views and the videos aren’t pushed out to different viewers!
Definitely one of the great Novelists of the 19th century! From very humble beginnings, to loved by millions. He did well! Thanks for the enlightening tour!
Thank you for a wonderful tour. One of Mark Twain's statements, I think from 'Innocents Abroad'... “Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.” You two do the travel so very well, and take us to many places we'll never get to see or experience. Again, Thank you.
Dinner with PIN! Who knew? Delightful food! Wonderful adventure with none other than - - - Tom Sawyer! Thanks for another excellent video trip with you 2! And, look at Steven - tiny baby, sickly child AND NOW a strapping, young man - AMAZING! 1 of my daughters arrived 6 weeks early during one of my US Navy deployments. I didn't meet her until she was 2 months old, but about newborn size. She's always been so eager to live life. Guess she couldn't wait for dad to get home. Such a grand, young lady - mother of 5 of my grandchildren. True story! SPAM in Minnesota AND Mark Twain in Missouri. Looks like you're getting close to KNEE-BRASKA. Eager to meet up with you 2 when you do.Oh yeah - my favorite Twain book is Adventures of Tom Sawyer, but The Mysterious Stranger is a good read too. Bon Voyage! 😎
@@davidensign5172 thanks for sharing all that David. Must be really hard on families when they’re deployed. Thank you for your service. I haven’t read the mysterious stranger. Sounds interesting
Brilliant video Steve and Andrea - my favourite bit of the book was where Tom conned the local boys into paying to paint Aunt Polly's fence for him. There are several Tom Sawyer books, but the well known one is by far the best. Fascinating bit of history!
Hello Steve and Andrea this is super great. Mark Twain always is good that part about Tom Sawyer white washing the fence is top of the list in the books and then the time they go into the forbinen cave and find the fugitive. Tom and his girl friend in the cave scared as 2 kids could be .Thank you again for showing and telling the stories of MARK TWAIN .Did you all so know that in Virginia City Nevada that town is very proud of him as well when Mark Twain and his brother ran a newspaper true story 🏆🤔
Looks like you two really got your steps done in this video! Great explore and video as usual! Back in my boyhood days ... I use to cut my Grandparent's grass for a dollar and the first book I ever bought was Tom Sawyer. When you consider my Grandparents house set on an acre of land and was at the top of the hill ... I paid a lot more in sweat for that first book! I loved Tom Sawyer and I couldn't hardly wait to spend the proceeds from my next mowing on Huckleberry Finn. I found Huckleberry Finn more of a challenge to read though. I think I was in 5th or 6th grade at the time. I ended up having to read both books again later in high school for literature class. I still enjoyed Tom Sawyer more so over Huckleberry Finn. I think Tom Sawyer is more relatable no matter where you live. I do own the two volume set of Mark Twain's autobiography and they are in my "to read" pile. They take up a good 8 inches of the book shelf next to my bed!
Thanks for liking my comment. Oh. I forgot to tell you that I also have a boxed set of, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn both illustrated by Norman Rockwell. They are quite old now. I was such a little tomboy when I was kid that when we'd play Tom Sawyer, I would always be Tom!
@@carol-4401 🤣keep hold of those they maybe worth something. My brother and I would play Batman and Robin. I was always Robin and my push chair was the Batmobile! I was about 4 ! Ahhh
Steve your in good health now because you have a wonderful wife and nurse 😊. What magnificent history here. I don’t know to much about these two members of society but they were both great people.ty both for another history lesson 😊
Very interesting history. Mark Twain was very prominent here in our area of the CA gold country, and Virginia City, NV over the mountain from us. And Steve I totally agree that history should not be "wiped clean" as it did happen and cannot be erased.
I few interesting things He said he came in with halleys comet and will go out with halleys comet, born 2 weeks after the comet in 1835 died the day after the comet in 1910 . He was a confederate soldier ( Missouri home guard) he deserted. Towards the very end of his life he was in bad financial shape and sick he traveled to England (this was about 1906-07) to do speaking engagements to clear his financial problems before he died. Because he filed bankruptcy he was not required to pay back his debt but did so anyway.
And he first used the name, Mark Twain in Virginia City, Nevada. Great job! I found some old clay marbles in an old camp and sold them for a pretty penny.
I have been there in 2001. It looks like they add more things but then again in our travel's somethings were closed for cleaning. It happened when we went to see Elvis's house. It was closed for cleaning. But we were able to walk the grounds and go inside of his airplane. When we went to New Orleans to go see and hear some jazz bands we were disappointed because all the places where bars with obnoxious drunks and half clothed women and wearing paraphernalia necklaces with male and female body parts that shouldn't be exposed. Some people are just too darn gross. Thank you for sharing and God Bless you and your family. Safe travels and I will look forward to your next adventure. 🥰💖👍👍👍👍👍(🌹🐞🦂🌵)
I used to have a pen pal in Hannibal Missouri. I haven't written to her since the 1980's. Her name was Jean Flowers. I often wonder if she's still alive.
@@PinInTheAtlas I don't have her address any longer. I quit writing my pen pals back in the 1980's and lost track of everyone due to severe depression. It was not long after my late husband passed away, and I hadn't expected life to turn out the way it had.
What a great story! And what a powerful presence in the American West ! You could literally do a series on places he worked, lived, stage lines he rode, just his writing career alone, Western mining camps, Gold country ..
@@charleyfolkes and that’s the sort of thing I personally could get my teeth into. Unfortunately we just wouldn’t get the views. As you can see this is another one which has tanked 🥴 or it’s not getting pushed to the right audience!
@@PinInTheAtlas Yeah, well if his books have been banned so maybe the videos too? Try one on Dr Seuss, he’s also been banned if you can imagine that !?!

@@carol-4401 that’s great Carol. That’s where he first used the name Mark Twain I think

@@JRIvy thanks for watching
When these buildings were new, 'A trip to the Loo' was often a Thunder Mug!
Steve your in good health now because you have a wonderful wife and nurse 😊. What magnificent history here. I don’t know to much about these two members of society but they were both great people.ty both for another history lesson 😊
Glad you enjoyed it Tina. Just love history
@@PinInTheAtlas me too. If it’s told honestly and factual
Most interesting journey.
Very interesting history. Mark Twain was very prominent here in our area of the CA gold country, and Virginia City, NV over the mountain from us. And Steve I totally agree that history should not be "wiped clean" as it did happen and cannot be erased.
History is so very important. Its interesting, but also teaches us so much - so many lessons to learn.
In the last Century, there were two great wits. Mark Twain, and later Winston Churchill. I wish I could have met, either one.
@@kenp9469 totally agree Ken. Both had wit and words of wisdom.
I few interesting things
He said he came in with halleys comet and will go out with halleys comet, born 2 weeks after the comet in 1835 died the day after the comet in 1910 .
He was a confederate soldier ( Missouri home guard) he deserted.
Towards the very end of his life he was in bad financial shape and sick he traveled to England (this was about 1906-07) to do speaking engagements to clear his financial problems before he died. Because he filed bankruptcy he was not required to pay back his debt but did so anyway.
There's certainly more to Mark Twain than meets the eye. A very intelligent and interesting character.
Another Awesome adventure with my Pin and beers cheers I've read the books and watched the movie
@@RaymondCoggins-xd2re it did make me feel that I wanted to read all his books especially the biographies
@@PinInTheAtlas yes do that
I guess Huckleberry Finn. Enjoyed this vlog.
And he first used the name, Mark Twain in Virginia City, Nevada. Great job! I found some old clay marbles in an old camp and sold them for a pretty penny.
Yes, I read that somewhere. It was to do with mining claims his brother and the Comstock Load I believe - Sutro Tunnel!
@@PinInTheAtlas yep! Hope all is well.
Thanks!
Sorry folks but I will have to finish watching your intriguing Doc on Mark Twain. Am gonna save to watch later. Stuff to do now. 🖤
ALL classics like you two thank you. My personal favorite story was the white picket fence a metaphor of politics today.

So, while you were there, didja visit the Laura Ingalls Wilder home?
