Mama's taking us to the zoo today, not Peter, Paul and Mary's, but Drake's Mama, and my sister. We went to the Saint Louis zoo at Forest Park in Missouri and it occurred to me that this may be the last time I ever come here. In fact, except when I fly out to Denver in May, I may never come back to St. Louis again.
That makes me a little sad. My father was born here, came back to go to Washington University pre-med at sixteen and brought us here many times as we were growing up. I will miss this city. It holds so many beautiful memories for me.
I came into my own here, found my soul mate here and now I move on, to the next phase of my life, much richer for having been here.
