We'll have dinner late afternoon and dessert after that. We've been invited to a couple of places and we may yet still have some family drop by.

It was surprisingly still warm (high of 72 degrees) so we headed off to the St Louis Zoo.We're there so often that we often overlook some sights from time to time. So we ventured to a couple areas off the beaten path. We found this black bear resting. A few more zoo adventure photos are on the flickr siteOn our trek downtown, we ventured over to Union Station.

Each student was asked to submit a favorite family recipe and to write why it's his favorite. Here is Alex's: I like Snickerdoodle cookies because they remind me of good times with my mom.
