Trick or Treat

While Jer handed out candy, Jenny, Shane and I walked around the neighborhood with Star. She was the best witch I've seen this year.



Here she is with a broom I made for her this afternoon.



Here is a close-up.

Happy Halloween!

Today in Pittsburgh

We were up early this morning. First thing on the list was The Incline. Jer was a bit scared driving up the hill side. So was I.
View from the Incline deck.



Jer driving scared! :0


Next was the Warhol Museum. It was great. There is a room with large silver balloons! Can you find me?



Then we went to the National Aviary. It was like being in a large bird cage. The birds were flying around your head, and you had to watch out for poop.


Last was the Mattress Factory Art Museum. Very nice collection.
This is a picture of Jer and I in an installation piece. It was a room of mirrors with glow in the dark dots on the floor.


We had a wonderful time. It was great to get away.

Hanging in Pittsburgh

Quick weekend trip to Pittsburgh.



First stop was the Phipps Botanical Garden. There were many glass works thru out the garden. These little guys were too cute.



Jer as a gargoyle. :)



Second stop was the Carnegie Natural History and Art Museum.


The theme of the day seemed to be dragons, so I thought this was appropriate.



Last stop of the day, dinner at Church Brew Works. Yep, beer in a Church!


Cheers everyone.

Trip to Yellow Springs

Today was a beautiful fall day. Jeremy had a great idea to go out to Yellow Springs with Star, Amanda, and Jenny.

Here are to girls at the head of the trail.



Jer and Star hand and hand.



Star at the falls.



The tree hugger!


The girls next to the scary sleepy hollow tree.



After the hike, Jer treated us to dinner at the Tavern and a trip to the pumkin patch.

Had a wonderful day. Love you all.

Indy Zoo today

Jer and I were up early this morning and headed off to the Indy Zoo.
We saw penguins.



There was an open shark tank.



And, yes I stuck my hand in the water and pet the skarks.



Oh, the Zoo also has a garden. Something they didn't have 20 years ago ( the last time we were there).



This is the entrance to the garden. It was gorgeous.
