Day 13 ~ University City and St Louis, Illinois

We follow the road ...
right into St Louis!

We decide to visit University City ~ The Loop! Shops, shops and more shops!

We "park" at a meter. We get the funniest looks from everyone we meet! Some guys from the store right there come out to ask us some questions. How is it driving that big thing? Is it a blast? What is that on the grill? Did you hit a bird?

A butterfly~

Devil City~

Better check where we want to shop!

Isn't it a fun street... I mean LOOP?

We stop at the Blueberry Hill~

A well known bar/restaurant.

The walls are covered with memorabilia ~ from Chuck Berry...

albums...

Pee Wee Herman...

you name it... they had it!

It's Howdy Time!

Back outside,
was their very own "walk of STARS"~

A comic book store...
We couldn't believe they are $2.99~

A theater marquee seemed very fitting to our trip.

We continue on the road, passing by the famous arch!

Beautiful sky line!

The road is taking us to Hickory Shores. We are looking for a "resort" type campground, at least that is what the website promised! We wanted a relaxing night around a campfire. The man on the phone said, "No need to reserve, just come on over"! It is a bit out of the way but we all agree it will be worth it and hey... They have a POOL!
