So last night I had to drop my mother off in Forest Park for this soul/jazz/rnb concert thingy...and I'd originally planned to go to a café and do some homework, but after dropping her off, I drove around town instead.

First I drove through the Central West End, then headed towards SLU, then downtown.

I forgot that I even liked downtown.

I like it even more peering up at the tops of buildings through a sunroof...and because St. Louis doesn't have a HUGE downtown, its never overbearing looking at its sky from the pavement.

Then I drove down to the Landing, and while trying to avoid cobblestone (which messed up my last car, and I was now in my mother's car), I drove down to the riverfront. Yes, it is still a lot higher this year than it has been in the past, but not covering the steps of the arch like when it flooded in late fall.

And I took some pictures.

no, my iphone does not have a flash.

I'd forgotten how pretty the riverfront can be when its just there, without an event happening.
yep.

That was nice.
