Herman and Jeff City
On Saturday, July 20th I hit the road, really setting out to shoot Columbia, MO, but with quick stops at Herman and Jefferson City. As it turned out, by the time I got to Columbia it was late in the afternoon, I’d been shooting all day, and circumstances forced me to have a local IPA off 9th St. I took all of four or five pictures while there, and I’ll definitely have to return.
Herman is about an hour and a half west of St. Louis taking I-44 and then MO-100. It was recommended to me as a bit of a charmer and it didn’t disappoint. Motorcyclists use it as a waypoint for what I imagine are fun, relaxed drives and tourists pile in on the weekends for the many independent shops, the architecture, and the vineyards — maybe especially the Hermanoff Inn.
