Last fall as I drove to Chamois, MO, I passed a sign that said “Frankenstein 3 ->” Unfortunately I was already running late to my visit to Chamois High School and had packed my schedule after the visit, too, so I had no time to take the three-mile trip down the road to see Frankenstein.
I told so many people about Frankenstein, which sits about 30 miles east of Jefferson City, and it killed me that when they asked, “Well, what’s there?! What is it like?” I had to answer, “Beats me.”
All summer long I hoped it would work out in my travel schedule to visit Chamois again so I could finally see what Frankenstein is all about. In fact, Chamois was then one of the first schools I scheduled.
I didn’t even think about it when I put it on my calendar, but I ended up making the trip toward Frankenstein the week before Halloween. Perfect!
I had anticipated this trip so long, and it was finally here!
I drove a few blocks, and there it went. So small it doesn’t list a population.
Frankenstein wasn’t exactly what I had built up in my mind, but it was worth the drive to finally be able to say I made it to Frankenstein, MO!
