We then made our way to St. Louis where we saw the St. Louis arch, which was huge and shiny.
We also saw the Soldier's Memorial Building, which was amazing. Filled with war memorabilia, the building itself was a marble monolith that was gorgeous. The amount of history contained within was incredibly impressive. Items ranged from torpedoes and guns, to katanas and Nazi belt buckles. The guard that worked there had lived in Portland and even let us stay a little longer, because we were homies. The library in St. Louis was also an architectural wonder and very appealing.
