Unseasonably Nice for July!

The weather for the past couple of weeks has been absolutely beautiful! We've had highs in the 70's and lows down in the 50's for the past week or so. The temperatures are creeping back up to the 80's this week, so we'll be closer to "normal" soon.

Tim and I took the kids to the St. Louis Arch on Saturday. The picture above is them overlooking the Mississippi River, with the historic Eads Bridge in the background.

I hope you all are having a wonderful week!

International Space Station

Did any of you see the International Space Station go across the night sky last night??? Went across around 10:05pm (CST). Then the Russian space shuttle could be seen following it. It was one of the coolest things I have seen. Not that I would have been able to tell what I was looking at, but good 'ole Dave Murray (meteorologist for Fox 2 in St. Louis) was kind enough to let us know! :o)

The Space Station itself was much larger and brighter than the shuttle, but they were both easy to point out since they were moving so quickly.

It was a really cool event...I wish I had equipment that I could have taken pictures, but there is no way I could have shot that with my piddly one.

Hope you all had a wonderful Independence Day!!!
