Three Pumpkins



We took our first day trip here in St. Louis. It was a wonderful adventure. It was amazing how quickly we left the city behind and found ourselves in the country. We ferried across the Missouri River and landed in Grafton, Illinois where the Missouri, Mississippi, and Illinois River converge. Along the water, we visited the Rendezvous. It is a festival celebrating the fur trade that took place there 200 years ago. Next we headed to a local orchard for some intense pumpkin hunting. St. Louis is starting to feel more like home.
