A Visit to Pittsburg
I had a career fair recruiting trip to attend at Carnegie Mellon University and since it was only a few hundred miles from home Karen and Daniel came along. It wouldn't be a vacation for me, but I would get to see Karen and Daniel at night and they would get to have a good time. We drove out on Monday night, 14 September 2009 and the career fair was on Tuesday.
On Tuesday while I was busy Karen and Daniel went to the Pittsburg zoo. Karen had a fun time taking some pictures and being a tourist. Daniel enjoyed it some, but I think he had as much fun in the hotel as anywhere else. He was fascinated by everything new. Getting him to nap was nearly impossible and at night when he would wake up and scream until we left our dark room. He just wanted to look around and was all excited. One night Karen was down in the lobby with him, and another eveining I was down there. Everyone else thought he was so cute. We agree of course, but we also value sleep. We felt bad for whoever was in the room next door. Karen said they turned on their TV during the night, probably to drown out Daniels cries. He didn't like us telling him he had to sleep when there was so much interesting stuff to look at.
At the zoo Karen got some cute pictures, including one of Karen and Daniel and a Mom and baby elephant.
