In Lawrenceville. Steve suggested “breakfast out” Sunday morning. He’d heard about Barb’s Diner.
Having just posted two days honoring Veterans on the blog it was serendipity to find these two displays on the wall that stay up all year long.
Honoring Veterans on Veterans Day was Steve’s idea to go downtown to the Veterans Day Parade. This year’s theme was “service”. Steve drove us to West Penn, parked and we walked about fifty feet out of the parking garage and an 86 bus pulled up. We used our Senior Citizen bus passes. Jeanette was our 86 bus driver and she drove us right to the start of the parade. She wished every rider a nice day as they exited the bus.
There was a flyover. Taps played at 11:11 on 11/11
The Irreverent Warriors (not pictured) marched too. I looked them up and learned their mission is to Eliminate Isolation and Eliminate Veteran Suicide
Looking across the Monongahela River Carrie Furnace Rivers of Steel “Towering 92 feet over the Monongahela River, constructed of 2.5″ thick steel plate and lined with refractory brick, Carrie Furnaces #6 and #7 are extremely rare examples of pre-World War II iron-making technology”

I saw the Great Pumpkin today.
Pulled over to the curb. Had to capture a photo to document my sighting of the Great Pumpkin.
