St Louis Arch and Labor Day Weekend 2011



Labor day weekend
I just got back from Oklahoma City. I was there for an annual Labor day getaway weekend with friends. We drove 2 days down and 2 days back. I sat in the back seat the whole trip. It is a cool city with great museums and the memorial for the The Oklahoma City bombing was a terrorist bomb attack on the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in downtown Oklahoma City on April 19, 1995. It was the most destructive act of terrorism on American soil until the September 11, 2001 attacks. The Oklahoma blast claimed 168 lives, including 19 children under the age of 6,[1] and injured more than 680 people.[2] The blast destroyed or damaged 324 buildings within a sixteen-block radius, destroyed or burned 86 cars, and shattered glass in 258 nearby buildings
On the way we passed the Arch in St.Louis it is huge ! I think I would like to spend a few days in this city too.
