Savoring the Sights ....

Our morning began by bidding farewell to Art and Michele. They got off to an early start because they have a 40 hour drive back home! We certainly enjoyed all the good laughs over our short time together!

After our good-byes Rod and Barb, took us down for an exceptional brunch on the Grand Concourse at Station Square to celebrate John's birthday. It was spectacular in size and selection and scrumptiousness! 😋

Afterwards, we wandered through Phipps Conservatory and were absolutely stunned by the artistry and elegance of the foliage displays!!

We also wandered through some of the culturally decorated classrooms at the University of Pittsburgh and were awed by the stained class at the Heinz Chapel.

We returned home for a nap ... and ... then enjoyed a lovely supper with Stev, Lyndsey and their boys. Unfortunately, the only picture we got of our dinner can't be posted because it was taken as a screen shot by accident and this App refuses to load it! 😞

On a more positive note, Rod's salmon was unrivaled ... as was the conversation! For those of you who are familiar with the Myers Briggs Personality Indicator ... Lyndsey is also an INFJ ... so the conversation is deep as we tend to experience the world in very similar ways!

It was an extraordinary day in terms of the weather so we even ate outdoors ... on October 20th ... and finished up the evening with a nice fire and a hand or two of cards!

All in all, it was such a great day. We feel like we got a good taste of Pittsburgh today! And ... we are off to bed early so we are recharged and ready for one more full day here! 😴😴😴Read more
