Pirates game Saturday night, perfect weather, a Luke Bryan Concert after (had never heard of him but apparently I am the only one who has not) Fireworks by  Zambelli.  Won’t go into the details on the outcome of the game (OUCH) but a stunning display of color and sparkling light over the city.

Looks like an upside down dandelion gone to seed.
