Meet Me in St. Louis...

After the conference I took a quick jaunt over to St. Louis and met up with Dan, who goes to SLU, and Jim, who was there for work. Dinner and Irish music at night, mass and the Gateway Arch the next day. The arch is 40 years old this year. And, YES, Stephanie - I got the stamps for the passport! I'm the one who had to leave for the lovely 8 hour drive back to GR.

-St. Francis Xavier College Church


-A couple views of the Gateway Arch. Gorgeous, as always. Dennis said we need one of those at Mackinac.


-Actually could have put other pictures up here. If anyone doesn't want to hear about Mackinac, I can always expound on the Gateway Arch.


-Jim and Dan theorizing on the substructure of the arch. Actually, we all just went "WOW!" and played the trust game. Dan doesn't trust us.
