Wow, I feel like I've been gone forever. I just got back from St. Louis where I attended a conference for National Guard stuff. I've decided that St. Louis does not impress me at all, but to be fair, no city really does. It was gray and raining the whole time, looked like Gotham city in Batman. I did go in up in the Arch so I could say I did something touristy. At the base of the Arch there was a Westward Expansion museum and a "mercantile" gift shop where I found a reprint book on cooking and housekeeping from 1877. I also got to visit with some friends that I haven't seen in a long time so the trip wasn't a total loss. But needless to say, big cities and travel are not for me, I'm very happy to be home.
