St. Louis Pics

This weekend, I finally tooka trip to see my best friend in St. Louis! She moved out there 5 years ago and ithas taken me this long to visit.

Being the picture taker I am, I didn't take any picures of us, her husband, or kids...but I did take animal pictures!!!
Forgive me for the kitties eyes, I'm not used to having cats around to photograph!

Welcome to St. Louis!

Amber has three GREAT cats! (I want one now! Hers didn't bother my allergies all weekend!!)

Their "oldest" cat is Meeshka. He is about 4 years old and a DSH
He slept on the arm of the couch, right above my head every night

Next in order of age is Pikey. He is the sweetest cat!! Always want to jump in your lap. He slept on my legs every night. He is a cornish rex, and very cool!

But of course, we didn't just stay at her house the whole time...being in St.Louis, I felt it neccesary to visit the happiest place on earth...the brewery!!

But of course, not for the beer...for the animals!!!

Where else can you see a bunch of Clydesdales?

While again, my pictures don't do justice...but check out these fancy indoor, heated stables

And it isn't just horses...their is the Budweiser DALMATION!!! What a help he was, bringing the horses out to pasture.

Oh, sure, they make beer there too...but who wants pictures of bring vats of that?!?

That's all I'llpost, but the rest of the album, is here

That's the St. Louis arch, right? I love the kitty pictures! Pikey is a very interesting breed of cat! :)
Edit: Whoa, right after I posted more came! Pretty horses!

Great pictures, Amy. But I really expected more than cats, dogs and horses. Like pics of Amber and the boys and Corey. And her house. And you don't fool me - you did not go to that brewery to see those animals!

:cool:

NEAT TRIP!!

Nice group of WatchKitties to help you sleep!

And they call that Clyde Howze a BARN!??

Wonder if that was the same Bud Dal I met a few years ago
at our County Fair? Can't remember his/her Name? :o
That Dog sure LOVED to ride the Wagon!!

Cool pics! The kitty pics were my favorite. :D

A Dally called Budweiser ..................... Cool :cool:

Thanks for the pics ................. beauties!!!

love the pics Amy!!
all of them!!!
ohhhh brings back memories!
We stopped in St. Louis my sophmore and junior years of high school, on the way to the National FFA convention in Kansas City..
I LOVED it!

Thanks for the pics!! They remind me of the 80-ties, when we lived in St.Louis during 2 years!! The Arch is amazing, and we also visited the Anheuser Bush Brewery 2 times!!:)

Oh Great pictures!!! I went to the Budweiser Brewery in Columbus, OH a few years back... and I didn't get to see any animals :( whaaaaaaa :p

What a cute group of cats your friend has!!! I just love Mowgli, Bengal's are so cool!!!

Now it's my turn to go to Missouri!! The hubby and I are leaving tonight at 8:30pm for my sisters in Seligman. They are in the VERY VERY South West corner. So it would be a 6 hour drive to the arch, I don't think we are going to see it, so thanks for the pictures!!!

I really like the picture of the cat with yellow eyes. He is a cutie patootie. And the arch was fun to see too! Thanks for sharing these pics with us pters!

Okay, okay, so maybe the 2 free beers at the end of the tour helped a little...

And by the way, if anyone is in the Boston area, I recomend "Brass Kunckle Stout" It is a newer AB product, (about 1 year old) and this is its test market. It is like a Guiness and very good! Hope the restof the country will get it soon!

Great pictures Amy. I just love those Clydesdales!
