Heading to Pittsburgh.... another wonderful, sunny, warm day...temps in the 60's!!
Arriving in Pittsburg....
Lucky for us, the Warhol Museum had their own parking lot, because there was a Steeler's football game later that night, and tailgaters were already arriving at noon to party and they were filling parking spaces all over town!
The entrance to the Warhol Museum...
Photos were allowed on the first floor but not on the other floors...
Lots of interesting things about Warhol's life ... and art ... and influence on other artists....
There was a room there, that you couldn't photograph, but I found this photo on the internet that was similar to the one at the museum ... Silver Clouds .. an interactive installation, of silver mylar helium balloons, that people could go into and push the "clouds" around, as fans blew them around as well ... it was fun to do it, as well as watch others and their reactions to it.
Oh my gosh!! On the bulletin board by the cafe in the basement at the Warhol Museum was a brochure of my art assemblages!! Now HOW did THAT get there, I wonder?? *G*
We decided to head out of Pittsburg before the traffic got worse since there was a football game there in a few hours ...
After driving a few more hours we stopped for the night, and found right next to our hotel a wonderful Steakhouse with European cuisine (Raphael's), where we had a delicious dinner!
Kasey had Pollo Fromagio-chicken breast stuffed with four cheeses lightly baked with sundried tomato cream sauce with fettucini & roasted zuchinni veggies, and I had pistachio crusted char-grilled lamb chops, served in a fresh rosemary demi-glaze, with saffron risotto and roasted veggies... YUMMMMMMMMMM
A perfect end to a great day! Tomorrow we arrive in New Jersey and meet up with nephew Jason in Hoboken and head to Manhattan and other fun sites!
