Checking out St Louis with freaking out dog and fireworks

St Louis Day 2

Happy 4^th of July everyone! Today we ate a big breakfast to start the day. I ate pancakes and had some hash browns. We then just relaxed at the RV in the morning hours. In the afternoon we went sight seeing around the city of St Louis. We first drove around to look a where my dad went to graduate school. We saw the building he took class in and his old apartment building. We then went to the arch. The arch is the symbol of the gateway to the west. For us basically it is the gateway back to the east. We took pictures and sat down at the stairs. We began to hear some fire crackers. The 4^th is not the favorite day for dogs. Dogs hate the 4^th of July. When Tilley heard the firecrackers, she took off running while dad was on the leash with her. Tilley dragged dad all the way to the middle of the park. I was laughing my head off when it happened. We also went to the old Rams Stadium. #RIPSTLOUISRAMS! I also saw Busch Stadium where the cardinals played. I thought the game was over because everyone started to clear the stands. I saw the game inning and it said it was the bottom of the 8^th and the cardinals were down 5-2. Before we did all of this we went to Ted Drew’s. It is a really famous concrete place in St Louis. My dad said he used to come here all the time. For all you NC State fans out there reading this, I saw a person wearing a NC State shirt. After all the sight seeing, we went to Mary Kay and Johns house. We ate some BBQ for dinner. We also played another round of corn hole. We played 3 rounds of corn hole. I only played 2 of the 3 rounds. I won 50% of the games I played. Then John, my dad, and I walked over to the park to watch the fireworks. We first heard some live music from 7:50- 9:25. During that we saw some different types of people. Some people were singing while others were not. Some danced crazy (mostly the adults) and others danced normal. We also saw a smoke bomb go off in the bathroom. Then the fireworks began. There were lots of different types of fireworks. They shot off lots of fireworks. The Grand finale alone was like 100 fireworks shooting off at 1 time. We went back to the house and the RV. Tomorrow it is supposed to rain so we will relax and move campgrounds in St Louis.
