 one.

attachment, 1829

edwin landeer

painted about the death of charles gough, whose body was found three months after he disappeared and fell to his death, with his dog still by his side, guarding his body.
this event inspired several paintings, as well as the poem helvellyn by sir walter scott.
it also brings to mind the saddest moment in animated television.

 two.

art: suggestive.

17. "panini...i've eaten some of his sandwiches."

sunday:

having a car also meant going to the art museum!

sledders in forest park.
that's the museum to the left.

kayaks really don't get enough use in the midwest.

the st. louis art museum is housed within a building made for the world's fair in 1904.

it has also always been free!

i took a road trip to stl this weekend.

we ate the same thing at a restaurant with the same name in DC.
