Day three of my cross country journey began with me waking up in Pittsburgh at the most auspicious hour of 8:30 am - decadent, considering I'd slept for nine hours the night before. The internal debate began of "do I zoom on to Chicago, or relax and enjoy time with a friend?" Relaxation, no doubt fueled by nearly 10 hours of sleep, won.
Photos above: Leigh Ann, in a hip coffee shop called the Beehive, Sideways above. Me, below , on the sofa in PJ's. Possibly embarassing in public domain, amusing none the less as this was my 10 am and in pjs lounging look.
At 10 am we made it out the door to do coffee at the Beehive and head to the Mac store. Verdict: My computer was not dead, merely ill. Revived.
While at the Beehive one of the "Photo Men" from the day before paid for our beverages and remembered us. Sweet.
Two pm on day three as I blog, and we'll see what else today brings. Tour of Pittsburgh? A water park? More napping? AS I go I realize I've sped-raced through this year, and while I do need to be in CA by the 18th or 20th, that's plenty of time and there's no huge rush. Its the journey that matters.
Miles driven: Zero. Unless four miles to the Mac store in someone else's car count.
Soundtrack: Silence.
Surprise: One of the men from last night buying us coffee.
Pittsburgh seems to be about being. And lounging. And food. Hooray for nurturing food- grilled zucchini. Rice pilaf. Pork chops. Thai food. Possibility of coconut milk ice cream later....
