I'm baaaccckkkkk....

Many thanks to my peeps for checking on me. My peeps that never leave a comment that is... One of these days, I'll actually hear from you on the blog instead of in my email :-) I've been away on a mini-vacation with a couple of my Sorors. We went to Pittsburgh to attend a wedding. As we prepared for takeoff out of Charlotte this is what we saw...

Now, I'm not the biggest sports junkie in the world but I just happen to be a Pittsburgh Steelers fan... I made the request of my traveling companions to be sure we drove by Heinz Field to get a picture of the Steelers home field before we left.
Needless to say, I did not have to make that request because this is where my soror had her wedding reception...





How could I have expected anything less! My soror and her new hubby are Steelers fans and of course, that had to be part of the celebration. Words cannot express my excitement to be in such a beautiful city AND home of the Steelers! Industrial cities are drastically different from where I live. Buildings take up an entire city block and they have REAL skyscrapers...
The temperature was perfect and consistently 10 degrees below the sweltering southern heat. For a brief moment, I was able to forget about lots of stuff on my plate here at the homestead and enjoy this beautiful getaway! Now I kinda know how sports fans feel about the passion and love they have for teams they actually follow and root for on the daily.
I just may become a REAL sports fan yet...
More to come later. I just wanted to get this out there so people would know I'm still alive and have bloggin on my mind!
