A PERFECT Saturday! :)
While Lyla was spending quality time with her Grandma and Pappy and playing in the country, Gary and I got to have a nice date day/evening.
We had tickets to see The Clarks at Stage AE in the evening, but we decided to head down early and just hang out on the North Shore.
I love Pittsburgh! And I kind of tend to forget how much I love it until I go and spend some time down in the heart of the city. I always love going to other cities (like NYC) for vacations and I forget that I have just as much fun and spend a lot less many going and exploring my own city!
We had lunch at McFaddens. Then we walked along the river and checked out the Fred Rogers statue and the WWII Memorial. Then we went to Rivertowne and sat at the outside bar and cheered on the Pirates.
Then we went down to the concert. I love The Clarks. You can't get much more Pittsburgh than The Clarks! Something about them gives me peace. I love to watch them live, especially at an outdoor venue. When I get to see The Clarks it feels like going home. Like I just sat and had dinner with old friends or something. Its hard to explain - but its a very good feeling and I always feel refreshed and alive afterwards.
