Jon and Ashley Visit St. Louis

Jon and his girlfriend, Ashley, have never been to visit us in St. Louis so they made the drive this weekend. We had a great time!




We had a blast playing the game "Rock Band" or "Rock Star." I can't remember the name, but it has a karaoke mike, a guitar and drums. Needless to say, we were up late jamming.





We took a tour of the Budweiser brewery. This is Anheiser Busch world headquarters for now. Of course there's a lot of talk about the buyout. Paul had never been on the tour, so this visit was a great excuse for him. We're afraid the free tour will end with a buyout.

For those of you who know Paul well, he is quite the Bud fan. He told us he wants to be cremated and his ashes strewn over this facility when he dies.























Family of beers. Need I say more? This is the perfect picture!













Jon and Ashley walking to the arch. Ashley had never been up in the arch, so they took the tram up.

Jon remembers when we visited the arch on a family vacation when he was about 11 or 12. He actually remembered some of what he'd learned about the arch on that trip, so we were very impressed.
