Powerpoint Slides for Everyone - 2013 - Week 46

Here again and again, each week - a free background image for use in Powerpoint (or similar presentation programs.) Use them as desktop images for your computer.  Use them at home, work, school, or church.  Copy them, change them, adapt them as you see fit.  I only ask that you share them freely and that you tell others that you found them here.

For those who are interested in knowing - this little bit of bokeh was taken in the Mark Twain Caves in Hannibal, MO - the same place I took these non-bokeh photos.

Inside the Mark Twain Cave

Last weekend I took my family down to St. Louis to visit some friends of ours.  On the way we stopped in Hannibal, Missouri.  We stopped there earlier in the summer to visit the Cameron Cave. This time we went through Mark Twain Cave - the one he described in his novel Tom Sawyer.

I took a number of pictures during the tour.  These are a couple of my favorite.

The bandit, Jesse James, along with his gang once hid from the authorities in this cave.  Jesse even wrote his name on one of the cave walls (as many of the caves visitors did over the years), but in order to preserve his signature, that section of the cave isn't accessible by visitors anymore.
