St Louis

I had a great time in St Louis on Saturday and it was even better when the Cardinals won, espically since they beat the Braves! I love St Louis. I think that it comes from many years of family vacations every summer but just been there puts me in a good mood. When you are driving on the interstate and you can see the arch, you can't help but smile!

The new stadium is beautiful and the weather was so nice on Saturday. I started to get a little worried with all the storms in the area and they had an almost 2 hour rain delay the night before. I was feeling well but I knew that I would not have been able to wait out a rain delay and still make it through the game. Our tickets were in "Big Mac" Land so we got coupons for free Big Macs and we got foam "fries" to wave around. They put us on the jumbotron once. We had some really rude people behind us that were Braves fans. The kid kept kicking my chair and at one point when the Cardinals made a really great play they threw something at me when I stood up to cheer. It never fails that I always get stuck around drunk people who are cheering for the wrong team.

The total count for the summer is 4 ballparks, 6 games, and a ton of great memories!
