Weekend Shenanigans

Friday night was Balloon Glow - which is when they air up the balloons at night the evening before the race in St Louis.  Unfortunately due to people thinking they can drive but actually can not - I missed the balloons - but did make it to see the fireworks.




I took these on my cell phone - not to bad.

Saturday was the Civil War walking tour at Bellefontaine Cemetary. I had an amazing time - the cemetery is stunning and the history lesson was nothing like your high school history class. I will be signing up for more tours. The tour was 3 hours and covered a little of 2 miles. We saw and learned about 60 individuals but in reality, only saw 1% of the cemetery.

These were also taken using my cell phone.



Sunday I really just puttered around my apartment - I got up worked out, cleaned house a little then watched some TV and later in the afternoon caught up on my favorite podcast at the moment.  I did dig out my little digital camera and charge it up so that I can also use that for capturing my adventures. While a cell phone is handy and these days takes amazing pictures - I also like my little digital camera. One of these days I will pick up a DSLR and get back into photography.


How was your weekend??
