Leaving St Louis
We don't want to leave you with a negative impression about St Louis, Missouri (Pop: 320,000 with around three million in the metropolitan area). It was probably just one of those days that left us feeling a little down. We came this way 20-odd years ago. It was October. The sky was blue. The air was warm. It was happening. Some days are like that. Right now, however, we're focussed on Oklahoma and checking a road atlas we bought way back in Pennsylvania. Tip: buy a USA road atlas before you leave your home country. They're in short supply in America where the satnavs rules. We're on I-44 now headed south west.
