Happy 2009, Pittsburgh!

Posted 01-02-2009 at 09:02 AM by By~Tor
Well, 2008 is come & gone now, with all its drama and uncertainty, and 2009 comes in bearing all the same trademarks...

When we first moved here last May, the whole area seemed to be full of live and vitality, and I've noticed a more negative attitude start to permeate through peoples' outward appearances lately.

Thanksgiving 2008

Posted 11-26-2008 at 09:07 AM by By~Tor

Saturday On the (Pittsburgh) Strip

Posted 08-30-2008 at 12:35 PM by By~Tor
