St. Louis is always fun.

My sister, Lise, has lived in St. Louis forever. She has unlimited energy, works hard and plays hard. Visiting her is not really relaxing but stimulating. Arrived Friday evening which meant drinks then a new Mexican place then home for the only activity in which I will compete with her at - SCRABBLE. I got killed 351-335. Humbling. Saturday brought yard sales, massages, picking up Maryann (her BF), the Missouri Botanical Garden, drinks & a cheese plate at Sasha's, home for grilled salmon, gazpacho, asparagus, cheesecake, drinks etc. THEN Lise rigged up a drive-in movie screen in her backyard, pulled out a movie projector thingy and we watched Shrek and Shrek 3, all the time munching on appetizers and guzzling more drinks. Heavenly, but all the sudden it was 12:48 a.m. and I had a 6 hour drive home the next morning. Relaxing but stimulating...
