The Lord was willin' but the creek did rise







Stayed in a hotel in last night, and when I attempted to return to my friend Ron's house on the Meramec river, the road, which was dry the day before, was flooded, about 2 feet deep. Could not cross - unless you had a truck or jeep with LOTS of ground clearance. Got accross in my friends truck (he barely made it accross), and helped him work on his house a bit. Then we took a drive down old route 66, and saw these really cool caves, went up to one and took a picture to show how large the entrance is. Tomorrow - a little tourist time in Saint Louis, then Saturday, I depart for Loveland, Colorado, to visit some new friends, Joe, Sue, Aaron, Allie, and Mike. Will be blogging again on Sat night, as I'll have no internet on Friday night.
