9/11 In Pittsburgh

9/11/01…in remembrance for the lives lost, and for the sacrifices that followed. A beautiful day in Pennsylvania served as a subtle reminder to the event that triggered this current journey. But…time marches on and this year 9/11 coincided with the start of the NFL season. Randy and I used this opportunity to travel to the “Steel City” to take in a Pittsburgh Steelers versus Tennessee Titans match up. Although the game was pretty much over by the 2nd quarter, the halftime show honored families from Flight #93 and featured a performance by the Oak Ridge Boys. In the end, my hometown team was crushed 34-7 (I'm glad I didn't wear a Titans jersey). It looks to be a long year for Tennessee fans.

On the bright side, Randy received his first taste of the “NFL Experience” and the people of Pittsburgh proved to be wonderful hosts. The fans at Hienz Field are a fanatical bunch. A special thanks goes to Jeff Modrak and Renee Rose for their inspiration, hospitality and friendship...we are forever grateful. Wishing you the best in marriage & business and we expect great things from you in the Gulf States.
