Hello, Saint Louis! Brick City is back, and just in time!
It's been a mixed week for my favorite schizophrenic city. She celebrated the Cardinals winning the World Series in a big way (thank God it's over), but the very next day, she had the "America's Most Dangerous City" sticker slapped on her ass. Yes, my return is timely and needed!
And what better time to start celebrating Saint Louis than in the fall, when she's busting out with color! I don't know about yours, but my block has been transformed into a tunnel of color filled with shades of gold and red, it's stunning.
Halloween was a blast! The block just to the east of me take their Halloween very seriously. It seemed as if every other house was not only decorated for Halloween, but animated with flashing lights and smoke. A few homes even had small tents set up, it was hilarious. One thing I can say about City folk, they don't pull punches when it's time to decorate for the holiday's...or the not so holiday holiday's. You gotta love Saint Louis.
Dear reader, we have tons to catch up on. I know it feels like we've been seperated for a long time, but I assure you that you will be up to date soon. The hiatus I went on in June was needed and welcomed, but I'm ready to write and explore the City with you once again.
So, I'm back!...if anybody's still reading...
