Jean Bonnet Tavern,the Great Race,Nola's ,and Andrew and Abigail Sheehan

And the Duck....because says Japan and Pittsburgh agrees, we are all in the

Tub together . 
    Of course, The best meal was at the Sheehan shady retreat(except maybe for the Confluence of fly fishing s'mores and stars near Ohiopile....you get what I'm sayin'?).
       The drive was lush, the car newish and the scenery fallish and Amish.
     I wore Orvis to watch the flies and new sneakers to watch the race....probably why Andrew regifted me the Emmy.

         A lunch at Nolas downtown Pitt was a satisfying Cajun treat and on the way home a stop in Bedford broke up the ride a gave us a chance to think about how  G Washington's failure in the French and Indian war led to lessons learned that helped him escape Park Slope during the Battle of Brooklyn and to the French dip sandwich at Jean Bonnet Tavern. Not sure where the crab cake broiled to perfection came from.
     So thank your Pirates for adding to the winning atmosphere...thanks Emmit and Eamon for the delight of watching you grow in to smart and likable fine adults..and Abby thanks for your grace and smores..and Warhol for the large Coke that even a NYC Mayor could like..and Andy for searching and finding ways to bring your beloved town into our hearts and for the Emmy. Thanks to Andrew for running..cheering runners...cooking,,,and to the bklyn Sheehans for marathon driving and running  and for the Spains for knowledge and entertainment.
     The cushiony hike in the woods on mossy paths that may have once held sarah palinesq snowmobiles or frank loyd wright thinking and wandering lonely as a Clod(not misspelled...look it up). Next year I am going to ride the incline if i meet the height requirement...but what should i wear? Maybe a miner hat with a beam on top. Oh and back for those stars too...I think I saw them once before when i was a scout in Kansas for the Jamboree and Eisenhower and James Arness came to visit.
