Perhaps it is a good thing that I read this quote AFTER my first helicopter ride ever!Today, Dad and I took a 15-20 minute helicopter ride over the city of St. Louis, and boy, it was great. I've flown in planes many, many times; however, I've always wanted to ride in a helicopter. Today we had that chance.
Here are some photos I took from the air: (I won't include them all, I took over 100.)
Missouri Botanical Garden (lop-sided view)

Up the Mississippi
If you look close, you'll see a boat on its side...this is here from the Great Flood of 1993. I just thought it was a pretty cool shot.
