Pittsburgh

On Thursday we drove to Pittsburgh. It was a relatively uneventful trip; we made it in 7 3/4 hours. The only problem was the road salt on a section of US22 east of Piittsburgh; there were snow flurries, and the road crews dumped more salt than the total snowfall.

Yesterday we went to the Strip District, as is usual for our Pittsburgh visits. The following are just a sample of the variety of stores there.
(Chinese food)

(spices)

(Steelers gear)

(cheese)

(dried fish)

(bulk olive oil)

(mini donuts)

(coffee)

Then back at Jesse and Aurora's, they had a Greenfield Ave. Christmas Parade watching party.
