36/365: Me Tarzan, You Emily

.

The indescribably wacky City Museum has been featured on St. Louis Daily Photo a number of times, like here for example. One of its favorite features is the ball pit out front (broader view here). Kids can bury themselves in the spheres, then pop up and hurl projectiles at one another. Here, the heirs to the St. Louis Daily Photo fortune take a turn, with Andy swinging across the ceiling like an ape man and Emily evaluating the situation at the back. Mrs. C watches carefully from below Emily and behind the fence, making sure that no harm comes to her little ones.

We explore some of the gorgeous architectural details of Union Station today on St. Louis Daily Photo.

11/365: Does Your City Center Have A Ferris Wheel?

.

Londoners can emphatically say yes. Parisians have one part of the year. There's a big one on top of a department store in Osaka that's a really cool ride. I can't think of any others in the US but there must be something somewhere. Oh, wait - Navy Pier in Chicago.

We got one. Thing is, it's almost impossible to see from the street. It's on the roof of the wacky-beyond-description City Museum. Not a bad view up there. This blog will head back to the CM one of these days.
