change of scenery

I got to do some walks in St. Louis this past week, where the temperatures were much more, well, temperate than here at home in Oklahoma City.
These photos are all taken in Forest Park, which is St. Louis' answer to Central Park.

At the end of my walk, I stopped in to visit my favorite exhibit at the St. Louis Zoo (free!)--the penguins.

I am also particularly fond of the Art Museum on its perch overlooking the city on Art Hill.
Now that I'm home, it's back to walking with Perky Fitness Chick on DVD. I have found myself moving up to her 2 mile walk, and am ready even to tackle one of her longer DVDs.
