Scenes from downtown Pittsburgh on a Saturday morning. |
|
|
|
|
We were all surprised at the cleanliness and overall beauty of Pittsburgh. For Steel City this was a refreshing discovery, |
|
|
|
|
The allegheny County Courthoouse is just one example of the beautiful architecture found in this city. |

Our hotel had a pool on the second floor with a huge skylight. Made it very hot and humid and caused my sleepiness to overwhelm me. |

At about 5:30 we walked to PNC Park for a Cardinals/Pirates baseball game. |
|
|
|
|
This makes stadium number 23 for me, number 9 for Venus, number 6 for JJ, number 5 for Baylee and number 3 for Jeff. |

The Hall of Famer, Roberto Clemente played his entire career in Pittsburgh. |
|
|
|
|
Clemente got his 3,000th hit on his last at bat of his career. He died in a plane crash while on an aid mission to Nicaragua. The movie "Chasing 3000" tells of two kids quest to see him get number 3000 and is an excellent movie. |
