And the verdict......

is we went up in the Arch!!!!!! It was a bit scary and claustrophobic going up, but worth it! Here are some of my favorite pics from our St. Louis trip. Sorry there are so many, but I told Drew, "It is so nice to be outside of Bad Axe and actually have something to take pictures of." He responded with, "You mean something to take pictures of besides cows and corn!" My point exactly!!!!!

Enjoy!



View from the top....looking down one of the sides really gives you the idea of how high up we were!

Shadow of the Arch overlooking St. Louis!

Union Station in St. Louis....beautiful architecture!!!!

That's us standing by the bottom....we look so tiny!

This picture was taken from the top of our hotel. At the top of our hotel was a restaurant that rotated. It took an hour and a half to go around one time. We ate dinner there the first night in St. Louis. It was beautiful looking out on the city at night!!

The Anheuser-Busch brewery in the distance. This is where we spent Monday night for a block party throughout the brewery. When we pulled up there was a red carpet and people lined up handing us a fresh Budweiser that was brewed that day. On the bottle the born on date said October 7, 2009! Pretty cool! We also got our picture taken with a Clydesdale, saw the new Budweiser Olympic 2010 car and Kasey Kahne, the driver of our car, was there for the unveiling! On Tuesday night we were taken by bus to a venue where Jimmy Buffet played for us. It was so surreal to walk up to the counter and have any drink or food that you wanted and not have to hand over any cash! We were about 10 rows up right next to the stage for an outstanding concert! What a great few days!

Here are three pictures I edited a little bit....just thought I would share!!
