Cool Hotels/Things to Do when in Nashville, St. Louis, MO or Boulder,

[Senor Choppy]

St. Louis: City Museum. Full of oddities, weird things to stare at, things to take pictures of, and just generally cool [censored] for people who are easily bored by conventional touristy stuff. There are things like the Arch, Grant's Farm, etc. but I have no idea what the appeal is for things like that, other than to find things to do with visiting relatives other than sit and stare at one another for hours at a time.

Blueberry Hill is a good, cheap place to eat that happens to be located in the loop, which is a nice place to walk around, shop, etc. There is a good record store nearby and an older theater that was recently rehabbed that shows smaller indie films and also has classics at midnight, like The Big Lebowski, Dr. Strangelove, and the Goonies. I think the summer midnight thing is probably going on right now.
