Well we made it in record time. It took about 4 hours and 15 minutes to get down to Pittsburgh. The roads were pretty empty on New Years Day. I was driving like a bat out of hell. I don’t know why. We were in no rush. I guess I wanted to catch some bowl games on ESPN. We left around 11:00 am and got there about 3:15 pm. Mary Coyne greeted us at the Family House. Dee And I proceeded to check in to room # 406. It is in the front of the house facing Shadyside Hospital. We could see the helipad on top of the hospital.
To kill some time before dinner, we decided to take a walk to the local market. This helped to stretch our legs after the long drive. We did some sight seeing in the store. We didn’t need any groceries because we brought our dinner from home. On the menu was pepper steak over a bed of white rice. Too much to our surprise, when we returned the Shadyside Family House, they had a great spread in the kitchen. It was leftovers from the New Years Eve party. So, we had H'Orderves and sparkling juices for our appetizers from 4 to 6 pm. Dinner followed.
After dinner we returned to our room and I watched the bowl games and Dee knitted or read a book.
We crashed about 10:30 pm.
