Boulder's all about being outside. Go hike in the flatirons or rent some mountain bikes.
Eldorado Springs is also close, and there's the Celestial Seasonings tour (which is fun). |

Mabe you should go to Eulich Garden (denver only about 30 minute drive) and there are plenty of hotels you can stay at downtown. |

[/ QUOTE ] doing some hiking early in the day before it gets TOO hot wouldn't be a bad idea. if they really want to beat the heat though, forget about elitch, it's all about water world! one thing i forgot to mention: in colorado you're at least a mile closer to the sun than most other places...if you burn easily, be careful. |

St Louis Casinos include Harrahs and Ameristar about 15 miles from downtown and the President about 5 blocks from downtown. All three have poker. The Casino Queen across the river from downtown does not have poker.
If you like sports I would suggest Cardinal or Gateway Grizzly games. www.stlcardinals.com and www.gatewaygrizzlies.com Grizzly games are really cool. 24 oz cans of beer are $4, tickets are cheap and you can sit really close to the field. After the game the players sign autographs. My son especially got a big kick out of it. (he was 10 years old). I always have a great time there. If you like history you may want to check out the Cahokia Mounds and museum. Additional information can be found here http://www.state.il.us/hpa/hs/Mounds.htm The St Louis Zoo is free and supposed to be one the best in the U.S. You can tour the Busch brewery and receive samples (tour and samples are free).

Re: Cool Hotels/Things to Do when in Nashville, St. Louis, MO or Boulder,
In St Louis check out The Hill (Italian section of town) for great Italian restaurants and delis. I lived there for a summer 5 years ago and I believe Soulard is where most of the nightlife was. The brewery tour is interesting and worth it, and they are not stingy with the free beer at the end. If religious architechture interests you, the Catherdral Basilica of St Louis is one of the most amazing I've ever seen (In the States anyway). Not sure of your budget, but if you can swing it the Ritz-Carlton there is very nice.
