Lancaster Brewery

We headed out to the Lancaster Brewery while in that neighborhood.  Lancaster was decidedly not what I remembered.  We didn't see any Amish!  While there we enjoyed a good lunch and shared a flight of all the beers they had on tap.  highlights included the milk stout and the chocolate strawberry.

 The gauntlet is thrown.

Narcissi Winery

A few weeks ago we hit the Narcissi Winery just north of PGH with the St. Bernard's Young Adult Group.  Since it was September we decided to go with a German Wine in honor of Oktoberfest.  Two thumbs up to the Gewürztraminer... as well as all of the other varietals we tasted.   Definitely a fun trip worth repeating sometime!

Ready for some football

A few weeks ago I went to my first Pitt Football game at Heinz Field!  The Panthers beat Florida International... for whatever that is worth.  Tailgating was great - who doesn't love food and beer?  The game was good, and the people in front of David are disgruntled fans to say the least.

Flashback: Cape Hatteras

Wishing I were still there

This is a lie.

The point that is the tip of the cape

We proceded to walk there. 

It was a long walk, and totally worth it. giant shells, and waves crashing from multiple directions.  

It was blustery at the top of the lighthouse

Mucho gracias to David for the photos -- my camera died. 



100 Finds

David made his 100th Geocache find in OBX.  I'm trying to catch up.  Its a slow process.

Wondering what a geocache is?  Learn all about geocaching.

Ribfest

Before Vacation we headed down to Ribfest at Heinz Stadium wiht our friends Chris and Bridgette.  We enjoyed some yummy barbeque and caught the free Clarks show!  Good times.

Nerd Alert

I'm in STL again for work.  This time I took a little time to check out a Civil Engineering Landmark, the Eads Bridge.  It connects STL to East STL, which is pretty scary.  But it makes up for the scary factor by being the first bridge constructed using steel as the primary building material.

Yup, I'm a dork.

BTW, more OBX pictures to come once they get downloaded and stolen from David.  There was an incident involving my camera.
