Hi- I’m back! Russ and Beth took me to the Saint Louis Art
Museum, and it was big and full of paintings, sculptures and even
exhibits of actual clothing worn a long time ago by the Native
Americans. These three photos are of the outside of the museum. The
huge statue of the king on a horse
Is King Louis IX (9th) who
the city is named after. In the second photo, I am standing on top of
the hill in front of the museum overlooking the beautiful fountains and
lake below. The hill is known as Art Hill, and when Beth was a little
girl she and a lot of kids in St. Louis would sled down the hill in
winter. It is a long ride and you had to be sure not to fall in the
lake! The third photo is a sculpture of an enormous electrical outlet
made of iron and copper. So cool to climb on! I’ll be back soon with
more photos of the museum.
