While we are celebrating the return of College Football, I thought I’d share some of our pictures from the 2012 TicketCity Bowl.

We Are…Penn State
St. Louis Visit Recap and the Budweiser Clydesdales
Hi! I’m back from St. Louis! Josh and I had a great time this weekend. We did a bunch of exciting things and a few less exciting things too.
First of all, the drive really sucks! It is 6.5-7 hours long and after about 4 hours I’m tired and ready to stop. This could have something to do with the fact that I don’t have cruise control or I could just be a wimp. I definitely needed at least one night’s sleep to recuperate from the drive and as a result most of our plans for Saturday were a wash. We ended up sleeping later than planned, so we decided to see a movie. While we were waiting for our movie time, we spent a few hours window shopping at a fancy mall where we couldn’t afford anything.
St. Louis, here I come!
I’m traveling to visit Josh in St. Louis this weekend. I decided to post the last few pictures I took on my last visit in honor of this trip. Sadly, I only have three pictures.
On my last trip to visit Josh we went to the Renaissance Faire, we shopped for a mattress and we went to the Laumeier Sculpture Park.
The Critters of Two Rivers Park
Since the weather has cooled off a little bit, I have been taking advantage of the two great walking bridges in town. Today I’ll talk about Two Rivers Bridge and park. This is the newest of the bridges and I really like it but it is tremendously busy!
The St. Louis Renaissance Faire
In June I went to St. Louis to visit Josh. I took advantage of the fact that the flight is only 45 minutes long and left at the crack of dawn on Saturday morning, arriving in St. Louis by 8 or 9 am. Josh took me on a little tour, showed me his apartment and then we headed to the St. Louis Renaissance Faire.
Big Dam Bridge
Today I went for a walk on the Big Dam bridge to check out the new spur leading toward the Two Rivers Bridge.
Heifer Village
On July 5th, Josh and I spent the day exploring downtown Little Rock. Our first stop of the day was Heifer Village.
The Peabody Little Rock
Josh and I decided to spend the Fourth of July at the Peabody Hotel in downtown Little Rock. The hotel was great! We had a river view room with a king bed.
Look what we could see from our room!
Josh and Mary Explore Downtown Little Rock
We always celebrate Josh’s birthday on the Fourth of July because they are so close together. The Fourth of July festivities in Little Rock include a concert by the Little Rock Symphony Orchestra Pops followed by some fireworks. In my research, I also found that there was going to be a party to view the fireworks from the roof of the Peabody which sounded fantastic. So, I bought tickets to the party and a hotel room for Josh’s birthday present. Since I decided to get a hotel room, I thought we’d spend the 4th and 5th bumming around downtown Little Rock to see the sights.
