Saddest shovel in St. Louis

As seen in the doorway of the Union Trust building at 705 Olive (7th street entrance).  It's supposedly going to be renovated into a boutique hotel.  Yay!  It's a neat building

I worked in that building from 2009-2011.  I had an enormous office with a chandelier and lumpy couch.  My boss had a bar in his office.  Good times.

Hopefully this shovel gets some work soon. It's been sitting there about 2 yearss.

Little Shorty

I generally don't like to post out-of-season pictures like this pairing, clearly from the late winter.  But, alas, I'm forgot to post this picture when I took it so enjoy.  And be thankful the days of wintering grass and gloomy skies are behind us.  Today is going to be sunny and great.  

Phoenix

A quick trip to Phoenix for spring break.  Sorry for bad photo quality.  On 16th Avenue.

Central West End

Just before the cold air returned and ruined the Saucer Magolia tree blooms.
