Pittsburgh



Just a couple shots of P-Burg, a neat city situated along three rivers and in between mountains...It is still on the distressed cities list after losing it's steel industry, but seems to hold it's pride up with the Steelers Superbowl winning streak. My niece's wedding was on a riverboat which cruised the water, and everyone had a good time as far as I could tell. We rode the incline the next day(a cable car up a nearby slope) which offered this view of the skyline-but rain canceled a planned zoo trip...maybe next time. Unfortunately, the east has been inundated with rain all season-the wettest on record in New England-so this week will be another washout. At such times I miss that dry heat in the southwest...Wildfires? what wildfires?
