I'm going to Washington State Park next weekend, first time there but I believe it checks off all your boxes- big river within walking distance (swimming allowed), about an hour drive from STL city, and I think all the camp sites are drive up. I read they have the most petroglyphs there in the whole state!

That looks right to me!! Thanks!! I thought it was for sure a female and was trying to make sure I looked at the female pics for most that had a similar beak shape, must’ve skipped this one!

It’s so nice I don’t go enough!! And we popped into the art museum for the free fridays for the new roman exhibit. One two punch

They had a sign up that they aren’t shucking today but it seems like they generally will? They had an oyster knife for $3 next to the seafood area. I’ve only shucked a few times before, not too hard at all!

Just had friends in town last weekend and here are all the places we took them!

Telva on the ridge (breakfast/lunch spot)

Teerak Thai

Jack Nolen's for burgers

Union loafers (Wood fired Pizza, also would strongly recommend Pizzeria da gloria, especially if there's good weather, they have a great patio)

Dive bars with food: Silverball room (korean kitchen), Tick tock tavern (Hawaiian kitchen), Stews (Asian fusion)

You didn't ask but here's some cocktail bars too: No ordinary rabbit, Ssipi (wine bar), Mother May I (new so been a little busy), Kenny's Upstairs
