Pittsburgh

Just a reminder that we are staying at the Hampton Inn, 3000 Mosside Blvd., Monroeville, PA 15146-2726, telephone: 412-380-4000. Mapquest offers good directions to the hotel, both off of the Pennsylvania Turnpike and for those heading east from Columbus, Ohio.

The baseball game on Sunday features the Pirates and the San Diego Padres; the Padres, as you know, have a farm team in Fort Wayne. The game is at 1:35 and we have seats 3-10 in rows T and U in Section 121. You can visit the Pirates website for more information about the stadium and our seat location. For those interested in photography the stadium offers great views also the river into downtown Pittsburgh.

Kennywood is on tap for Friday and Sean and Liz were researching festivities/activities for Saturday.

Looking forward to seeing everyone next week.

Hey guys, I had a calm second or two here at work and thought I'd throw out a couple of ideas that Liz and I had looked at:

1) Andy Warhol Museum (he was born/raised in Pitts.)
2) The National Bird Aviary
3) The Mattress Factory (another Art Museum)
4) IKEA, for those of us who don't have it in Columbus.

Liz will probably see this and throw out the other research she has done too. There are always the evenings to do cool stuff too, since we'll have plenty of cars maybe that's a good time based on when the museums are open.

Laters!

Sounds great! I will be leaving Columbus Friday afternoon after work. Depending on traffic I SHOULD be there around 8ish....

I can't wait to see everyone!!

I, too, was very interested in the Mattress Factory when I did a bit of Pittsburgh research. I'd like to add to the mix taking a cruise on the river. The Gateway Clipper Fleet has 1 hour cruises for $11 a person. Their website is below:

I have restaurant suggestions. Curves owner Glenda's son went to college there.
