Pin Oak Creek RV Park in Villa Ridge, Missouri, about an hour from St. Louis, nice park. Hardly saw Connor, he made some friends and he was always out and about. They had paintball at the camp ground so the boys played one weekend with friends of Connor’s. Took the boys into St. Louis and went to the Arch, Gateway to the West, they really enjoyed going to the top and seeing the view from so high up. Spent another day at the St. Louis Zoo, it was so hot, but well worth it. While in St. Louis, we also took a tour of the Budweiser brewery, at the end of the tour, adults got free beer samples and the kids got all the soda they could drink. Went to Grant’s farm, kids got to feed the animals and we took in a show or two, even seen the Clydesdale horses. We also explored Ulysses S. Grant’s farm called White Haven. One night I took the kids to Busch Stadium to see the baseball team St. Louis Cardinals play and they won, had a great time. Gerry, Connor and I went to the transportation museum which had a lot of old trains. Took the kids to NASCAR Speedway Amusement Park, the kids wore themselves out. Connor really enjoyed the rock climbing; Mikey spent his time driving race cars.
