I'M BACK!

So, the trip to St. Louis was great. We actually stayed with Andy's Aunt in Belleville, IL. It is right next to St. Louis, so it is easier to say the bigger city, you know how that is. 5 1/2 hour drive to get there, but is was good fun with my buddy Andy. Once we got there we passed out. The next day we did some things with his Aunt and his Cousin and her son. It was all good fun, then Andy got a chance to show me around the towns he spent like 6 or 7 months at. Ya see, Andy got kicked out of the High School here in town (Fort Wayne) and his parents decided to send him to live with his Aunt and Uncle. He drove 40 min every day to a small christian high school where he eventually graduated from. Well, he made many friends and our mission on this trip was to go to a gragduation party for one of his lady friends (Mary). We did and it was fun. Then we hit up some local parties, where he got to mingle with old friends, and I got to be around PEOPLE! HORRAY!

This was Andy's Aunt's dog "Skeeter," skeeter was a good lil weiner dog. Most of the trip was boring and not very scenic. Out where the grad party was looked like this. It was madly beautiful, and was cool. This was a lame picture I took at the grad party. It doesn't show anything cool, andmakes it look really boring and stupid. There were tons of people there, and amazing amounts of really good food. I just took a stupid picture of parents in lawn chairs for some reason. This was on of the "after parties" we went to. There was music, lights, dancing, hay, bla bla bla...

The final day, TODAY, I got to go see the Mississippi river, and see the St. Louis Arch. Above is a jamming picture of the great river. I saw some pretty awesome casino boats on there. Then, of course my favorite part. The Arch. Did you know that the Arch is the tallest national monument in the United States at 630 feet. Ohh, you do now.

It was a good trip, like any trip where I get to leave this city and state I have spent my whole life kept up in is. I do love getting away. Hummm......
