ST. LOUIS · June 20-22, 2008

The Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery
This is the 5th-busiest of the national cemeteries; George's brother William is buried here (d. 1982).


Oak Hill Cemetery, where George's parents are buried.

A fine stand of yucca along Big Bend en route to the opera.


Around the Soulard Market

Trinity Lutheran Church & School (founded 1839). Hollyhocks surround the parking lot across from the church.


A fine old building, seemingly perfect proportions; looking at it makes me want to write.


In & around the market.
We liked the company of these shoppers outside the market; obviously they have iron constitutions and they must stick to their diets.


George watches the crowd pass by.
