WoW... what a weekend!




Pat and I flew to Pittsburgh last Friday to see Manatee play football. we also took in a couple of Pittsburgh baseball games. I can't say much for the Pirates but the Hurricanes were great. We were on the same plane as the team, it was fun.


Friday night we were invited to a private box to watch the baseball game. It was a great way to see the game. A lot of food and many friends to visit with. As you can see we also had a big desert cart. I made a mistake and ate a big piece of carrot cake and the next my sugar crashed about noon, but it was worth it.




Saturday morning Pat and I walked down to the Rib Fest that was down at the Steelers stadium. They also had a marathon with 6,000 people running in it, yes 6,000. I tried to take some photos of the first people coming into the stadium. I don't think they turned out to well. We met some friends for lunch at Jerome Bettis's sports bar. We went there to watch the Gator game. Really did not have much to watch as they really looked bad. We left at half time and went back to the hotel and watch the 2nd half.






At 5:30 we headed for the stadium where the Hurricanes were going to play. We parked at the High School and took a shuttle to the stadium. It took about 10 minutes to get to the stadium. Remember that time as the end of the story will make you laugh. Manatee played after Cocoa Beach played so we cheered the 2nd half for Cocoa. They stayed and watched Manatee's game and cheered for us. It was really neat and we all had many fans up there and we both were successful. After the game our luck changed a little with the bus ride back. This driver was a lost soul and so were we, it took us 30 minutes to get back. This was not due to traffic, it was because she had no idea where she was.
You have a Blessed day and be a Blessing to someone.
We proclaim him, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone perfect in Christ.” (Colossians 1:28)
