We have recently, as of 15 minutes ago, touched down from points west, phantasmagoric, galactica. It feels like we just returned from the moon.

Colleen's sitting across from me with a solitary, terrestrial glass of red wine (with ice?!), while dining on a veggie burger and potato chips. Some local angel left two frosted doughnuts and a plate of homemade chocolate chip cookies on Col's dining table so I'm dining on those. As you can see, our meeting with the UPMC Nutritionist on Evaluation Day 4 turned our eating lives around. (Kidding, of course, we're just temporarily self-medicating.)

The Camry is unpacked, our bags in our respective bedrooms. 

Before leaving Pittsburgh, after lots of goodbye hugs at Family House, we did take the time to see that special spot where the south-flowing Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers come together to create the mighty Ohio. We found our way to the top of Mt. Washington--formerly known as Coal Hill--and indulged in the spectacular view from there.

Tomorrow morning at 10, the immediate family is gathering here at Col's for a debriefing.

Bon nuit.
