As a kid, I heard that people could go up in the St Louis Arch. I remember thinking that that was something I'd never do. Not because I'd be scared to, but because I'd never have a reason to be in St Louis.
Today our route took us within a mile of the Arch, so of course we stopped. The girls loved it! It was worth the side trip.
The kids are getting restless from all the driving, but are still hanging in. One more day of driving and they'll get 3 days off. I'll admit I'm right there with them. Looking forward to walking around and seeing some sites instead of endless farms. We are back in the land of normal radio, so that is certainly an improvement. Tomorrow? Appalachians!

I love the Arch, and I'm happy that I grew up in St. Louis and was able to visit it often. I'm glad you went up. I once had a fellow Smithie visit me in St. Louis and she refused to go up. So sad. I was like, "You don't know what you're missing..."
Did you guys eat at the river boat McDonald's afterwards? I thought that was SO cool when I was a kid.
