Another short drive brought us to the St. Louis area and the Granite City KOA RV park. This would  be home base for the next week as we visit Bobbie's family.  Sister Andy and brother Dan, and cousin Aleana (et al) live within a few minutes drive of the park.  It has been four years since we have seen everyone and it was a great week.  And herein lies the rub.  We did not take a single family photo other than the one shown below.  LOL  It's been so long since I take photos daily that I have lost my tourist skill.  

Mixed in with ou.r visits we also both hiked and then road the Old US Route 66 through the Chain of Rocks area.  On our own we wandered the present desolate Union Station area and rode the ferris wheel.  On our last day, we went downtown and wandered around the Arch National Park with Andy and had lunch at a Bosnian deli outside of the city
