St Louis
It has been a quiet two days in St Louis. Karen’s bug has resurrected itself and she is back on antibiotics, which has upset her stomach.
Yesterday I backtracked to Chain of Rocks to get a photo I missed in the rain on Wednesday. Only a short distance from the site I got stuck by a train , stationary across the road, and neither IMAPs or the Ford’s GPS could show me a way around, so I U turned and headed back into St Louis.
I did get to visit the Chuck Berry statue and memorial but the Old Missouri Supreme Court building was closed for renovations when I got there. We did the Arch in 2018 so gave it a miss this time.
In the afternoon I took Karen, who was feeling a bit better, to Ted Drews for a frozen custard (me) and ice cream (Karen) the to Macy’s where she got her sister some polo shirts, but her stomach started acting up,so it was back to the hotel again.
Today my St Louis friend, Gary, came by the hotel. We headed out to a diner for lunch and a good chat that lasted over two hours.
Tomorrow we head back on the road.
