Time off with Chango

Monday (6/10) through Wednesday (6/12) was Chango's home time.  It was nice to have him home.  
On Monday, we went to see a Kansas City Royals game. It was a boring game, I am guessing because none of the teams were teams we liked.  The Royals played Detroit Tigers and the final score was 7-2 Royals.
 On Tuesday we took a drive to Hannibal, Mo.  Nothing in the town seemed to peek our interest so we were debating to take a drive to Nauvoo, IL or Saint Louis, MO: I ended up picking Saint Louis.  There was plenty of things to do in St. Louis and we picked going to the Budweiser Plant.  Oh man that was such a good choice!!! The first thing we saw there was the Clydesdale Horses and was told a little bit about them.  Did you know that the horses must look a certain way to become part of the wagon team???  After that we went into different parts of the plant, learning different things about how the beer is made and what ingrediants are added, how they are bottled and packaged.  At the end we were able to have free samples of 2 beers or soda.  I had to choose the soda because I was the designated driver and also I lost my drivers license during the Royals game. =(  After the tour of Budweiser we went to the Saint Louis Arch.  Talk about tall!!!!! Then we came home.
 On Wednesday we just stayed home and did some yard work and had a BBQ for just us.  It was nice having James home and especially being able to go and tour the Budweiser plant.  Maybe we might go back to Saint Louis to do other things like the science museum and the zoo.  Who knows we will have to wait and see.
