We had a little bit of a wait at the train station in Greensburg, Pennsylvania yesterday. Their train left Philadelphia 21 minutes late and it snowballed after that as they followed one slow freight train after another. All in all, their train came in about 2 hours late. It gave M and I a chance to check out The Supper Club, something we wanted to do after we took the train from Philly to Greensburg, but our train also arrived late and we decided at the time we should just go home as it’s a 2 hour drive from there to home.

It was fun having someone with whom I could share the work, and I got to see how the Pickle Lady makes her fabulous (Best Pickles on the Planet) pickles.
