Thank you for the information you have given me so far, sounds like lots of
things to do and see there.  As for the Fish Carving Championship, it is
held at the Convention Center in St Charles, MO which is attached to the
Embassy Suites. Their is 2 parts to it, one part is the World Taxidermy
Championships and the other part is the World Fish Carving Championships.Â
If you Google or Bing either of these sites you will find lots of
information on both of them.  My wife and I were there for the 2009
Championship and had a good time, but seemed like we were pretty busy so did
not get to see enough of the sites. Did manage to see one of the
riverboats (Ameristar) and also did spend a little time in the old part of
the city. The Arch and Zoo sounds like it will be things we need to take
in. We are into crafts, arts, of course carving and I guess art in
general.  Yep, I also like trains, (used to be a depot agent) so railroad
is in my blood. :o)
The snow starts on May 3rd and I think we will be leaving on May 8th or
9th.....  Then we are heading to the Tulsa, OK area where my wife will be
taking some watercolor classes.  After that then who knows where. Â
Thanks again Jim

First of all, I would like info on the where and when of the Fish Carving
competition you will be attending. I was not aware of it.
If this is your first trip to St. Louis you might want to check out the
Arch, pretty neat. If you like animals, you're in luck. St. Louis has
a world class Zoo and it is FREE!! If you like trains (I do) the
Transportation Museum is a must! If you are a baseball fan, St. Louis has
a brand new stadium. St. Charles is a pretty neat place too. The old
part of the city has a lot of little shops (antiques, crafts, restaurants,
etc) with old cobblestone main street. If you like to gamble (not my
thing) there are several casino river boats in the St. Charles and St. Louis
areas.  Tell me what you are interested in and I may have more ideas.
Jim
