USS Ranger Reunion Trip for 2007 - Day One

All I can say is WOW!  The Chihuly installation at The Phipps was fabulous, awesome - words just cannot do it justice.  Here are some shots I took.

If you ever get the opportunity to see a Chihuly installation, please make sure you do.  The WOW factor is off the map.  They did decide to keep some pieces there permanently so head to the Phipps and feast your eyes.

We do have to thank our Tom-Tom for getting us there - we got a little lost on the campus of Carnegie Mellon and Tom-Tom got us out of there perfectly. 

Now we are settling in at the Hampton Inn for the night and will continue on to Covington, KY bright and early tomorrow!

USS Ranger Reunion Trip for 2007

Today my friend Carol and I are heading out to Pittsburgh, PA - our midway stopping point for Covington, KY where this year's USS Ranger Reunion will be held.  My dad is a former Ranger and we will be meeting him and his partner Ann there tomorrow.

We are leaving bright and early today in eager anticipation of the first stop on our trip - The Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh.  We will be seeing the Dale Chihuly installation there this afternoon and we are both so excited about it.

Happy trails!
