Gateway Arch yesterday...

Howdy!

Took a little field trip over to Downtown yesterday with the camera... The Arch
seemed particularly photogenic, what with the sun and high clouds.

Hope you like 'em!

Dedication to Robert E. Lee... Architect of the old St. Lois waterfront.

Awesome shots of the Arch! That Arch is one of my favorite sights when I drive through St Louis. The Mississippi river is also something I look forward to seeing. No matter how many times you drive over that bridge that river is just something to see.

Thanks!

Next time you're thru this area, give the US-67 Clark Bridge a try... It runs from West Alton, MO to Alton, IL, and gives an even more commanding view of the river. Down the river a ways is the Price Lock & Dam, which you can tour for free. Pretty senic drive, especially during autumn!

Always impressed with the size of the arch.

Good catch with the people to really justify the size ;)

Thanks!
