Final day in St. Louis we had to go to the Gateway Arch. There was a lot of construction going on as they were getting ready to celebrate the 50th Anniversay. We took Liz and John from California with us. Got our tickets in the courthouse where the Dred Scott decision was made.
Inside the old courthouse which is now a historical building and ticket office for the Arch:
Dred Scott monument.
Construction going on around the Arch:
Up at the top!
John and Liz:
Mark and Rick looking out:
And looking down at the Missouri River and toward the Courthouse and Construction:
And down one leg of the Arch....makes me a little dizzy.
Later that night at the AAPRCO Banquet, we got to see some more of the beautiful grand hall laser light show before they stopped everything with the hot air balloons on the ceiling. Good food, good dance, grabbing the extra wine from the tables.
