Pittsburgh, PA

I'm a sucker for road trips, so when Collin invited me to Pittsburgh this weekend, I was in. Collin has a friend from college that goes to med school there and we crashed on his couch. We drove in to see a girl Erin McKeon play Friday night at Club Cafe. It was a very mellow show and Erin got onto the audience for talking a couple times. Especially the two people beside me and myself. So much for having fun.

On Saturday we drove around the city and saw a few sights around the town. That night we watched the Pirates lose another, this time to the Giants. PNC park is a cool stadium though. Plus, baseball is always fun, regardless of who plays.

Collin recently bought a GPS and on the way home Sunday we used it to see some places like the Rolling Rock brewery (which was closed) in Latrobe, PA and to do some geocaching which was a really good time.

Overall, I gave Pittsburgh a 7 on my scale of places I could live. NYC is a 9, San Fran and Boston an 8.5, and Houston a 6.
