Pittsburgh 9/26 on to Ohio 9/27

2 museums today: Andy Warhol and Frick. Warhol is near where he grew up in Northside just over the bridge. 7 floors of his work with a timeline of his life. The latter displays included the contents of his apt. With Knic-nacs and appt cards and other mundane items. The Campbell soup can was there, Elvis x 11, and other famous works. We enjoyed it!  The Frick was a piece of land with their house and several houses one of which has a cafe where we had a great soup and quiche. A museum was built in the 70's in the style of the NYC building. The collection is mainly 13-15th century religious art...free admission. The greenhouse also very pleasant.  We ate at Legume a nice restaurant near our hotel again. Stopped at the Allegheny Cemetery on our way to Ohio via W. Virginia.drove along route 43 and stopped at McCook Home in Carrollton. Stayed in Canton.
