Raleigh > St. Louis
Took a mid morning flight to St. Louis. It went without incident.
Needed to stop at a Target for yet another Rx refill. Found one sort of en route to the hotel.
The hotel was pretty nice. It was in an old historic building and my room was gigantic!
It is right next door to Cardinal Stadium.
I really needed to get my nails done and the area near Target was less than desirable. So upon checking in at the hotel, I inquired. They referred me to a few day spas nearby.
I called them all and they only do natural nails. Well my nails are natural, they just have an acrylic overlay on them to make the stronger. Even so, none of the day spas could help me.
So I ended up at some questionable place. They did them really fast and it they didn’t completely dry for a day or two!
On my walk I had an excellent view of the Arch.
That evening I met up with my friend Rich and we walked to dinner. I don’t remember the name of the place but it was good. It was nice to spend time on the road with him – we typically just work together in Ohio.
Thursday – NCAA Hockey Regional Set Day
Set day went well. Nothing really to report.
It was sometime last night that I looked at the artwork over the Jacuzzi tub in my bathroom. Oh dear Lord it has a snake in it!
Why? Why would they do that to me?!
Friday – Game Day
1 Boston College vs 4 Colorado College
3 Nebraska Omaha vs 2 Michigan
Colorado College defeated top seeded Boston College 8-4 in game 1
In game 2, Michigan defeated Nebraska Omaha 3-2 in overtime.
Saturday – Game Day
4 Colorado College vs 2 Michigan
Before work, a few of us went to lunch at a spot Rich and some of the truck guys used to hit during baseball season. It took us a bit to find, but it was worth it!
It has a very long history of making the best burger in the region. And I must say, it was pretty darn good!
It is very busy and when your party doesn’t fill up the table, they send another party to sit with you.
Which was interesting.
If you are ever in town and have some time and are craving a burger, check it out!

On to work…..
Michigan defeated Colorado College 2-1 to advance to the 2011 Frozen Four.
After the game, everyone went out for drinks. I was a good girl and went ‘home’ to pack and prepare for the next leg of my trip.
