"Home could be the Pennsylvania turnpike / Indiana

"Home could be the Pennsylvania turnpike / Indiana's early morning dew / High up in the hills of California / Home is just another word for you" - Billy Joel, "You're My Home"
🧡
And we've been to all those places so many times - except, as established, we are absolutely terrible at taking pictures together, so this is the best I could do for a 15th wedding anniversary post.

This is a sandwich made with garlic rosemary bread

This is a sandwich made with garlic rosemary bread baked in a (clean) tomato can. This bread is objectively awesome and I'm so pleased that I finally recreated the insane sandwiches we ate in Montana 2 years ago.
🥫🍞
I don't feel good about most things these days - honestly, I feel useless and hopeless and clean out of coping mechanisms - but this bread is a small victory.
🥪
Link in bio, if baking tin can sandwich bread might help you feel a little better too.

I really miss road sandwiches. This gorgeous reube

I really miss road sandwiches. This gorgeous reuben and onion rings paired so well with the pink marble Formica table at the 290 Diner in Johnson City, Texas.
🤠
I remember being very hangry after our trip to the LBJ Ranch and this was an unexpected treasure - all the more bittersweet because the diner has now been replaced by a more upscale spot.

Benefit to shooting everything alone at home by yourself: you can just flop down and take a 5-minute recharge before starting the cleanup proces.

Silver Clouds and cow wallpaper! Found these photo

Silver Clouds and cow wallpaper! Found these photos from the first time I took Dan to the Warhol Museum in October 2001, and oh man is that some Peak Casey Realness.

Both of our denim style has improved immensely since then, but that's my beloved Old Navy (!) jean jacket and my DKNY loafers, both of which I still own and cherish.

Lots of eye-popping art? Check. Lots of trails and hills for hiking? Check. Lots of room to picnic? Check. Storm King was the perfect place to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, with lots of the things we love in one expansive spot. -CB

Happy Roberto Clemente Day!
🇵🇷
We always try to plan a trip to Pittsburgh in the summer so we can get to a Pirates game. It feels like such an Event when they close off the Roberto Clemente Bridge linking downtown to the North Shore so that fans can easily walk over to the ballpark. At the foot of the bridge, a larger-than-life statue of The Great One welcomes fans to the block party outside and the ballgame inside.
⚾
After the last out, the tide reverses as the crowd heads back to their cars (or the bars). But if you're there on a fireworks night, the bridge makes for an unparalleled vantage point to take in the show.

Can it really be called a "deserted village" if there are a bunch of signs clearly marking its location *and* a few private homes still in use on the property? The Deserted Village of Feltville was a sawmill and farm in the 1700s, then a factory town in the 1800s, then briefly abandoned before becoming a summer resort in the early 20th century.
🏚️
Deserted or not, it felt (heh heh) great to get out and explore the cottages for an afternoon while the weather's still amenable. - CB
