We woke up to a very busy day on Saturday. We met Zipf and went down to Soulard for some shopping. Stocked up on some great fruit and veggies so dinner this coming week. After a quick shopping trip, Zipf and I volunteered for the GO! St. Louis 10k packet pick up. We were the greeters and showed people where to go to get their bibs. The race pick up was held in the Muny's rehearsal room. It was rather difficult to find and the park was a mess, but we finished up by 2:30.

Sunday was another busy day. We did a little yard work to get the yard ready for the winter and pick up a bunch of leaves. Then we headed over to St. Mary's to visit my great-aunt, who is recovering from knee surgery. After visiting with family, we headed home and made a couple dips to take to Zipf's to watch the Cardinals clinch the NLCS! I loved watching the Brewers fans and their beast mode come to an end!
What a great weekend! I'm now ready to go to Pierre Marquette to see if we can get some good fall pictures!
