    Laura, a short ride up the Allegheny river and we could have had a mini PT meeting!
    I thought about you and told the guys I knew someone who lived up there. If I'd had a way to get your phone number I would have called you but the weather was so bad I doubt you could have come out. That would have been so cool though, wouldn't it?! We spent a day up there the first time we were up there. Right here! (On the Monongahela River)

    Welcome back! Glad you had a good trip, Laura, you had some stunning views and I know the crew loved your cooking.

    Thanks for sharing the pictures.

    Laura, I think that day was one of our below zero days and even for Pittsburgh it was bitterly cold. Maybe one day when it's warmer you can make a trip.

    David, someone gave us a newspaper and it said it was -3 that night and warmed up to 4* during the day. WARMED UP?

    Well heck, we could have held a big party (me doing the cooking of coarse!) and had a great time!

    While I would love to go do another trip on the Ohio during the SUMMER... those 2 days in a car like to have killed me and it is something I hope I never have to do I again. I am not fond of having to climb those lock walls either.

    It is so pretty up there and I can't get over how everything is built right up to the river up there. On the lower Mississippi we see nothing but levee's and woods. I love the mountians! We don't have those in the deep south..

    Laura, that was the actual temperature. Figuring in the wind chill that night it was more like -18 degrees! When it got to 4 degrees it felt like a relative heat wave!

    I kept asking the guys "...and people REALLY live up here! "

    I have to say this, it sure is pretty up there, even frozen!
