Great City


St. Louis, that is. I took this photo out my hotel room window (Hilton at the Ballpark) a few years ago, just as the sun was coming up over the Mississippi River. The city's downtown area is a great place to walk about, and many interesting sights and activities are readily available. I first got "into" St. Louis while I was assigned at Fort Leonard Wood, about 120 miles south (not a fun drive I have to say, because it seems that the Missouri Department of Transportation is always doing something to I40). Plus, after having driven it so many times, it gets to be a boring and somewhat mind-numbing experience. Listening to KZNN out of Rolla helps me adjust, however.
