When you’ve spent a summer or two (or every summer of your life) in St. Louis, you know there are certain things you just have to do. Do you really want to go a whole summer without Ted Drewes? Did summer even happen if you didn’t spend an evening in Forest Park for one reason or another (movie, Shakespeare, the Muny)?

Goalkeeper Roman Bürki Gave up Millions to Play in St. Louis

2 years 3 months ago
A St. Louis CITY SC ticket is the hottest one in town right now, and while there are lots of reasons to love the team (homegrown young guns Caden Glover and Miguel Perez playing in the majors for the first time, the history-setting five-win start, the intense style of play), goalkeeper Roman Bürki is a perennial fan favorite. Defensively, Bürki is considered a "sweeper-keeper" because he comes flying out of the box to intercept long balls from opposing teams.

It's summer, and it's time to take the biannual winery trip to Augusta or Hermann. For the uninitiated, Missouri wines aren't great, and Missouri summers are even worse (dress to sweat), but sitting outside listening to live music as the sun sets over the vineyards can't be beat.

A Hiker Takes on Missouri's 'Creepiest Trail' — Sort Of

2 years 3 months ago
There are plenty of articles online — many with clickbait-y headlines — that will tell you all about the "haunted hike" that takes you to the lost towns of Hamburg, Toonerville and Howell, in nearby Weldon Springs, Missouri, typically accompanied by images of a graffitied tunnel, a rusted fire hydrant or an old chimney. The internet is working overtime to make this hike seem exciting, so I laced up my boots and headed out on the 10.5 mile Lost Valley Loop Trail.
