Weekend trip to St. Louis Missouri

It is spring break here in our area, but not for our Dad so we decided to do a close trip around here to see some sights we haven't yet seen. It was a great weekend.
The Mississippi River is way out of its banks, as you can see this is a statue that you can usually walk up too and the water is almost covering him!


The Mighty Mississippi




The Gateway Arch



this is the boys at the base of the arch



We had a great dinner at this restaurant on the river front.

That looks like such a fun trip. The mighty Mississippi :0 I can't believe the amount of water. We have got a ton of moisture here in So. Utah as well. We are going to have some full reservoirs this summer. Glad you had fun. Thanks again for taking Flat Stanley along.

How fun! My kids were in awe of the Arch when we drove through there last fall. We miss you guys...
