Meet Me In St Louis

I've been on the road for a week (~23 hours of driving) and have made it all the way to St Louis.

The road so far in numbers -
Fallen Trees: 3
Dead Raccoons: 4
Dead Squirrels: too many
Dead Deer: 1
Places named Pocahontas: 1
Crosses the size of a large building: 1

After leaving Bubbe's house, I drove to Pittsburg where I learned that Pittsburg invented everything useful in our lives. Steel, heart transplants, the polio vaccine, Rosie the Riveter, environmentalism, glass, the civil war, abolitionism, the washing machine, Mr Rogers, ketchup - the list got to the point where I became a skeptic.

Jill, Miriam and Jacob were kind enough to show me around to the Church Brewery - 

And this thing called the incline...aptly names since it was in fact on an incline. It went up the side of a mountain so that we got to see this - 

I left Pittsburg to drive to Ohio and ran into this along the way - 

So I stopped for a bit at an antique place that featured stuff Speilberg rented to use in the movie Lincoln -


When I woke up the next morning in Ohio, it looked like this outside -


So far its been quite a trip.

This is a bonus picture of Bubbe's dog -
