Gateway to the West


I made a visit to the Gateway Arch in St. Louis, constructed from 1963 to 1965. It is 630 feet wide at the base and stands 630 feet tall, making it the tallest monument in the United States.




The street along the waterfront was entirely flooded.


The arch is laid out in a park and a mall leads up to the old courthouse in the city.



Sometimes looking up at the arch can make you dizzy.

Later, we went to the zoo. Maddie and I rode the train.
