Tuesday We met Pat and Larry and we rode together in their car doing some sight seeing. It was nice for Kent to not have to drive and he could just look all over. We stopped at a real neat fish place for lunch and they had huge tanks of fish at the end of each table to watch while you were eating. We invited them to go to the Anheuser-Busch brewery with us and take the tour, they declined as the walk would be too hard on Larry. We did the tour and we thought the draft horses were beautiful, they sure have beautiful surroundings. (picture) Sharon liked this horse because of it's name (Luke). We found the brewery pretty interesting and the tasting room was real nice on such a hot day with the high humidity (85 degree's 65 % humidity). (pictures). They gave everyone two drinks and pretzels, Sharon tried a new energy drink with alcohol and really liked it until she read it had 4oo calories in it!!!! That night we tried out one of the casinos in Missouri, they have the craziest state law there where you need a club card to enter any casino. You have to have it in the machine or the machine won't work.The card tracks how much money you spend. When you have spent $500 in two hours the machines cut you off for 2 hours and then you can play again until you lose another $500. It was no problem for us obviously. LOL
