Here’s a photo album of our recent visits to several Midwest must-sees.
Our stops in St. Louis, MO, included the Arch, Jefferson Expansion Museum & National Park Site and St. Louis Zoo. The kids loved the 60s-era pods that take you to the top of the Arch and seeing it at night was really cool (as well as crowd-free). Also, being very familiar with the "end" of the Lewis & Clark Trail, it was fun to see the "beginning"! One thing we didn't see is much of the St. Louis waterfront given that it is currently underwater due to flooding.
We were excited to visit Topeka, KS, for a reunion with our friends John, Elizabeth and Micah Floyd and very much appreciate their gracious hospitality during our stay there. We had a wonderful time with the Floyds visiting the Kansas State Capitol for a Dome Tour; the Monroe Elementary School which is now home to the Brown V. Board Museum/National Park; and the Gage Park pool with it’s many diving platforms and water slides. Topeka is a lovely city!
We're now in Norman, OK to celebrate 4th of July with friends here. Hope you enjoy the holiday weekend!
