 We spend the Halloween week in Pittsburgh staying with Eliza Miller.... |
 ...and visiting favorite haunts downtown. |
 The Kaufmann clock AND Horne's Department stores are no more, but... |
 ...some things seem immutable! |
 And Mr. Tiffany comes to the Scaife. |
 Kids visit the Wycolf Gallery on a field trip and... |
 Ron checks out the Tiffany come-on on the stairs to the Scaife gallery. |
 There's lots to see! |
 We go to the mall with Marta and Lorelei and Lorelei asks Puppa to pick her up, then.... |
 ...she checks out the touchscreen and... |
 ...manhandles a 'friend.' |
 We meet at Olive Garden for... |
 ....lunch. |
 The next day we go downtown to visit the City-County Building.... |
 ...where the architecture is amazing and .... |
 ....Lorelei enjoys a ride. |
 These elevator doors are a standout! |
 At the County Courthouse building we enjoy the murals... |
 ....reflecting working Pittsburgh and... |
 ....watch Lorelei navigate the stairs; up and down and.... |
 ....jumping! |
 "Pick me up, Poppa!" |
 One Oliver Center on the way out of town. |
 "Read to me, Auntie Jeanne!" |
 We visit the Carnegie Museum and Scaife Galleries. |
 The Carnegie Museum of Natural History has always fascinated. |
 Shakespeare takes his rightful place outside. |
 The Scaife splashes their Tiffany display on the stairs. |
 The Doughboy WWI Memorial |
 Lorelei gets Rockin' and rollin' for Halloween.... |
 ....and deposits spare change for a rainy day which.... |
 ....this is!! |
 Daddy and his Lady...BUG! |
 Eliza gets into the spirit of Halloween! |
 Meeting new people is hard! |
 But they surely appreciate seeing a little one! |
 And looking out the window at those ponds is fun! |
 Lorelei enjoys a Smiley Cookie from EatnPark before we head... |
 The city from the car |
 ....into the city. |
 Downtown Pittsburgh sparkles! |
 The last day is spent in Oakland where we visit the... |
 ...new Phipps Conservatory with it's new domed front! Wow! |
 Isn't it lovely? Outside and... |
 .....in looking out! |
 The vegetation is lovely, but the prettiest spot ... |
 ....in the place is the Japanese garden... |
 ....between buildings. |
 Ron enjoys the colors. |
 Colorful Fall foliage in this garden and... |
 ....seasonal fantasies for October make this... |
 ....a fun place! |
 We get clever about photographing the two of us together! |
