heading for St. Louis

We're heading out in the morning for a week of family in St. Louis... kids, big family reunion on Sunday, lots of eating (gasp! there goes the 8 lbs I lost during the teeth transition ) If the Hampton has a working computer, I'll be checking up on you all, so behave yourselves. Otherwise, see you all next week Friday. (dang, sure hope my two expected bzz kits don't show up on the front porch while we're gone... have neighbors checking, but every day? doubt it.)

Have a great time Dee! You will be in my state, but I am still 3 hours from St Louis.

I'm thinking you're down in the Ozarks... a place I came to love. I met Chuck in St. Louis when I moved there... and although we only lived there a few years before heading to CA and then points beyond... I love the SW part of MO.

I am in the Ozarks. Not quite sw, more middle part, very near Arkansas. It is very beautiful here for sure!
Do you have lots of family in St Louis, or is everyone meeting there?

I'm going to enjoy a lot of food.... especially pizza. St. Louis has the best. But actually, we'll be staying in St. Charles, daughter is in O'Fallon, and the extended family is in Florissant... a lot of gas between stops!

And thanks, I'm sure we will.

Hope you have a great trip Dee!

Have fun! Wave to my son Craig if you see him!

and Craig would be in what burg? you know, there's St. Louis, then there's all those little towns around that consider themselves St. Louis, but aren't, well so to speak.

I should be packing... but what am I doing? spinning my keyboard

Well he went to school in Webster Grove... but he lives in the city now. Has lived there for a long time. He has a wife... Sonia ..from there..

Have Ted Drew's frozen custard while you are in St. Louis!!

Oh No! Hope you bought a sweat shirt?

nope. Did bring a spring jacket... but from knees down to ankles, nothing covering this ole body up, and my skin has turned purple! at least I have socks and shoes, so the tootsies have been spared
