If you’ve been following my twitter stream this weekend, you know that Kyle Steed came into town to hang out. It was really nice to meet Kyle in person and show him a little bit of St. Louis.

Kyle met my crazy kids and lovely wife and won a Jameson Irish Whiskey t-shirt at Bar Louie.

Make sure to check out Kyle’s St. Louis Flickr set and new website.
