The History Museum
Sometimes you have some time and a friend to join you and you just “Seize The Moment”.
It was a pleasant summer day in St Louis. Rich, who is a good friend, and I took Metro Link to Forest Park where the Museum of History is. Forest Park is a wonderful park with trees, walking trails, St Louis Art Museum, The St Louis Zoo, the Boat House Restaurant, and is home of the Muny Opera.
The building which houses the Museum of History was built in 1904 for the World’s Fair. There were several exhibitions on display, the 1904 World’s Fair, about flying, and about Charles Lindbergh being a couple of them. We only made it through two exhibits and plan to return another day.
What a great afternoon, close to home, and at little cost. The only cost was to ride Metro Link, which was cheaper than driving. With gas prices rising, it was a great fun thing to do close to home. We also did not need to concern ourselves with finding a place to park.
