Saturday morning began with this self portrait
in Katie's room before my breakfast bagel
and pictures of Suzanne
Andy
Ben
Sarah
vegetables
Sam
Jane
Katie
Debbie
and Suzanne
around the table.
Around noon, I extracted Ben and Sam from their game
and we drove past the Warhol
to parking
by the dinosaur
near the statue of Honus Wagner
at PNC Park
where our buccos were playing.
Once inside, we got a plate
which Ben filled
as did I
and Sam
to the amusement of our waiter
who showed us the way to this carrot cake
before we emerged through this gate
and took our seats behind home plate
to look out at the stadium
and watch the game
as batters
checked the scoreboard
before the next pitch
and we ate wings
and left peanut shells
before the next batter
as the man with the tail
watched the next pitch
as we roamed the stadium
and got Ben
and then all of us
against the backdrop of the city.
Next we went to the room celebrating Bob Prince and the Pirates of my youth.
This ad
was familiar as were the sayings on this coat
and this picture
of Bob Prince himself.
Continuing our tour of the stadium, we got the good city views
the playground view
the view of Heinz Stadium
and a few looks down at the field
before we came back to watch the Buccos
lose the game.
That evening, dinner was at Andy and Debbie's. We took a few pictures of Katy
in her room which she was nice enough to let us use and then pictures of
Norma and Suzanne
Sarah
and Milt and Katy
before focusing on the food
that kept Ben
Suzanne
Norma
Sarah
Robert and Sally
Milt
and Andy and Katy
coming back for more and more food
including this artistic plate
made by Katy was in the food that
kept on coming.
After dinner, I took this picture of the women in my life
and we recorded the shared pair of socks
before posing for more traditional pictures
including this picture of Norma and Milt
getting ready to go.
Somehow this led to more foot pictures
and some last attempts to capture the shared pair of socks
all to amusement of Sam.
