This was my first year not spending Thanksgiving with my family in San Diego. Luckily Summer was here and we finally got to take the trip to Sedona that we'd wanted to for years!

More From St. Louis






  Cardinal's Arch outside Starbucks



Jefferson Expansion Memorial...

Arch closer up...




Views from top of Arch...





I had a little bit of time before I had to leave for the airport this morning, so I walked a bit more around downtown and took a quick trip to the top of the Arch.

One thing I learned about riding to the top of the Arch is that when they ask you if you're claustrophobic when you buy your ticket, they aren't kidding! The "tram" is more what I would call an "escape pod." They cram 5 people in a space small enough where 1-2 people would feel cramped!

STEM Summit in St. Louis


Arch from near my hotel...



Jefferson Expansion Memorial across from my hotel...




I took a quick trip to St. Louis to attend a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Math) Summit sponsored by LEGO Education and had a little time while walking to and from the convention center to take some photos.

At Village Walk





My mom and I stopped to get frozen yogurt at Golden Spoon and I couldn't resist taking some shots of the pond with the plants and flowers in bloom.

Sunset Through Trees


I went out to try to get a photo of Blossom in the big coral tree out back, but she didn't cooperate. Before I came in, I took this shot of the sun setting through the trees.

Out & About in the Backyard






When my mom took the cats out for their evening romp through the backyard, I decided to tag along with them (Blossom mostly) to get some photos. I gave up on kitty photos after a while and gave into my fascination with clouds as it was a stormy looking sky. I love cotton ball clouds! These are a variety of photos I took while out in the yard with the cats.
