A great day for a boat ride.

The weather was really nice this afternoon. Somewhat un-expected for this late in the year. It was a really great day for a boat ride on the Gateway Clipper Fleet in Pittsburgh. pair Networks paid for a lunch cruise on the Clipper fleet for all of its employees.

Too bad I didn't get to actually go on the boat. After struggling for two hours to get Leanne ready to leave as she poked along slowly, we got there just as the boat was blowing the horn and they were un-tying the ropes. We were told that it was too late to board. So we got to stand there and watch as the boat left without us.

Its too bad. I really wanted to go. This makes three pair Events in a row that I haven't made it to. In June, I ended up in the hospital emergency room on the day of the event, and in July my mother died on the day that pair went to Kennywood. I think I'm just going to stop planning on attending these events. They are way too depressing.
