Staying at the Scott AFB Famcamp was great with a really private site in the woods and for $15 a night a super deal. Here's the view out the front window on Saturday morning. We were able to hit the BX and Commissary and restock the Flying Scotsman for at least a few weeks into the Canadian stay.




Saturday evening, the Sampsons came over to the RV site for happy hour and then we set off for one of their favorite restaurants in St. Louis. It was about a half hour drive to the west over to the city and in the evening their famous arch was really pretty.






We went over to the area in St. Louis called The Hill which is composed of many Italian restaurants, all of them excellent. Here we are with Ron and Jill after the super meal. Jill and I had the sea bass which was beyond excellent. This was a really fun evening with some wonderful old friends. Actually it was the Sampsons that got us started on our first European trip in 92 and created the traveling monsters we are.
