Industrial Pittsburgh


On our way out of Pittsburgh, we all went to Braddock to see the amazing locks and steel mill. Our timing was very lucky: we got to see a large tug loading 7 huge coal barges into the locks, then they closed the massive gates, flooded the locks, and then pulled the barges out with a smaller tug (the Joe T). Oh yeah, it was a gorgeous day.

New friends


During our trip to Pittsburgh for Thanksgiving, Aaron and Claire made some new friends: Sophie and Evan. The kids haven't spent much time with dogs and being around these loving dogs made the kids much more comfortable.
