It’s unusually warm for a late-October morning as families meander along the brick sidewalks that flank the similarly-paved street stretching the length of the St. Charles’ historic district. The Missouri River traces the city’s eastern edge, looking much the same as when Lewis and Clark cast off to explore the nation’s newly-acquired western territory more than 200 years earlier. Except for the casino that towers above the south end of the historic district—and the cadence of vehicles bouncing across the red bricks—those clinging to the remnants of a long summer could have easily been transported back to the Victorian Age.
