The view in front of the St. Louis Art Museum looking over the Grand Basin is great.
However, an even better view (at least in my imagination) would be that of a bird perched on the sword hilt of St. Louis.
From this high perch you could see a large portion of Forest Park. The hill sloping down in front of you gives way to the water feature with fountains. The History Museum is a little farther ahead. To your right — you can spot a portion of the zoo. And directly behind — the Art Museum.
In any season Forest Park offers much to the visitor. Outside attractions such as golf, tennis, or ice skating (limited season) are set among museums and an outdoor theater.
Residents of St. Louis are lucky to have an assortment of attractions. As a bonus — many of these are free admission. (You may be charged for parking or special exhibits.)
The characters in the sweet romance, Stare Down, have lived in St. Louis for many years and are familiar with many of the public spaces. Join them as they solve a murder, learn valuable lessons, and become more than neighbors. Click on the link for book information: http://amzn.to/1LXiTwP
