Hey! My Uncle and his family live near Ferguson in Beardstown (I think is the name). How'd you like the city, and what area?
Yes, walking is the best. Very therapeutic :)
Roughly: 15 years in Ferguson (in the boring part near the old train station, but I am also familiar with the streets #BLM was born on), 5 in the Central West End, 10 on South Grand, 5 Downtown. (And then on to Seattle.)
I’m an urban rat. St. Louis is lovely but no part of it is quite dense and vibrant enough for my taste. Though there are certainly gems and I enjoy my return visits.
Though there is a limit! Much of Manhattan is too busy for me, as are some neighborhoods here in Amsterdam.
