(see him mentioned in the book?)

Some time back, I wrote here on MattChat about a book I was reading on the St. Louis Arch:
As I was finishing the last couple chapters, a name was mentioned that I thought I recognized.
MARSHALL D. HIER
Then I remembered why I recognized the name...... I MET THE GUY!!!!
STUNNER!!!!
Yup, he even gave me his business card:
We were down in STL for a weekend stay, and on our way into town, we dropped by the Gateway Geyser in East STL.
The Mississippi River overlook at the Geyser's park was still under construction -- but open enough that we could walk up the ramps.
It was a beautiful, bright sunny day. Mr. Hier, who according to the book was in leadership for the park's development, was at the top. We had a nice chat, and he gave me his card.
That was years ago..... probably 2008.
Great memory.
So glad I kept his card.
So glad I remembered where I put his card.
Out for now.......
