The evening felt like summer, this last night of September. Steve and I had a great time thanks to my son sharing his season tickets with us. The city skyline so colorful and bright against the dark sky. It sure gets darker earlier and the game didn’t start until 8:15 so definitely Monday Night Football.
It was a good game for the Steelers as they were 0 and 3.
Tonight’s score Pittsburgh Steelers-27 Cincinnati Bengals-3
At halftime we saw the four inductees of the class of 2019 being inducted into the Pittsburgh Hall of Honor — Elbie Nickel (his son was there to represent his deceased father) , Larry Brown, Bill Cowher and Hines Ward. #86 got the loudest cheers.

Wednesday afternoon view from the Heinz History Center.
It’s Spring Break at Grandma’s House for three of the grandkids.
I am fortunate to live in a city with so much to offer.
This is the view from Butler Street, towards the Highland Park Bridge. One of the 445 bridges of Pittsburgh.
You can’t see the Allegheny River due to the fog.
The metal view finder is reflecting the street lights.
Did you know the swiveling sightseeing view finder is actually called TOWER VIEWER – coin operated binoculars ?

Early Saturday Morning, The Brothers Reed, Phil and Aaron, and their friend and cameraman Daniel hit the road for a Saturday night gig in New York City. The brothers from southern Oregon and Daniel in from L.A.
Friday night the brothers played a House Concert at my home. An enjoyable evening of great music, shared with good friends.
Their mom’s high school friend drive down a couple of hours from Erie for the concert.
I’d hosted the Brothers in May 2016, too.

Daniel at work filming for a documentary he’s creating.
Earlier in the day we drove around the city. I gave Daniel and Phil an abbreviated tour of the city. I blogged the flooded rivers yesterday. Here’s Phil by Duquesne Incline up on Mt. Washington.
