I love walking around Citygarden in downtown St. Louis and admiring all the sculptures. If you want to see “Zenit” up close, you have to put a little effort in, because it requires a climb up a short, but rather steep, hill!

I’ve photographed these sculptures of “Deidre” and “Maura” at the Missouri Botanical Garden before, and they’re always fun to see…I especially liked how it appeared they were running through the fog at the Garden last week!

Chickadee wanted to go to the St. Louis Zoo on her birthday (which is tomorrow), but it’s supposed to rain, so we decided to go today. So how, you may ask, did we end up at Laumeier Sculpture Park instead?
The zoo is still requiring (free) reservations for admittance, and much to my surprise, when I went to request our tickets last night, they were already sold out. So Chickadee decided we should go to the Missouri Botanical Garden instead. But when I went to reserve those tickets through the member portal, I discovered that they’re closed on Mondays. So Ladybug suggested Laumeier Sculpture Park, a place we haven’t visited since pre-COVID, and it was a great idea!
We saw a lot of familiar art:







And we took a path we’d never been down before, and saw some really cool things (and did a lot of climbing…those steps were just as steep as they look!):



It was a beautiful day to be out and about!


Up next…our second March birthday!
