Decided to take my family to The City Museum.

Was very impressed and thought it was one of the coolest things I've seen in my life sober. My kids just freaked out with enjoyment. It was neat.

Ate at Bogart's Smokehouse which was pretty awesome BBQ.

Next we toured the brewery, which was kinda cool too. Those horses are fucking huge.

Gonna go to Grant's Farm tomorrow. Anything else we should do this weekend while we're still here?

A few great record stores in St. Louis -- Euclid Records, Apop Records, and Vintage Vinyl.

I would've recommended Bogart's but you've already been there. That place was legit.

There's another BBQ place called Pappy's Smokehouse if you wanna try that. I heard it's super crowded though. Ted Drewes frozen custard is also one of the more popular places to go. I thought it was pretty good. Your kids would probably like it a lot.

STL has one of the best zoo's in the world, admission is free but parking is kinda pricey. The Magic House is pretty cool for the kids and not far from Grants Farm. There is also a restaurant right on Lindbergh and I44 that has great wings called Helen Fitzgerald's. I travel to STL every Wednesday and hit up Helen's most of the time because it's right by the hotel I stay at.

Eggs, Hash Browns, Hamburger and toast....all covered in chili (with cheese and onion if you like). Was only five bucks and you can get it 24 hours a day.

I've never had it sober, but I'm sure it's terrible.

Yeah, I think I'll take the kids to the Zoo. They don't get to the Zoo too much where we live.

Do you really expect us to believe you skipped the entire state of Wisconsin during summer...in favor of a brewery/city museum in a dump of a town?.

HHM is only packing in case someone tries to touch his hair. I pity the fool that tries to touch the hair.
