I spent an accumulation of 8 days in Pittsburgh over the holidays and nearly every day was gray and spitting snow or drizzle. I couldn't have been happier; it meant I was really home.
The nights brought a sweet intimacy, a warm mystery.
The traffic light photo is perfect - that pop of green through the gray sky. That's one of the reasons I love Pittsburgh - the gray days make for great photos. And Emerald Glass! I don't think I ever saw the sign lit up, it looks beautiful.
jdg, my in-laws live in Mount Oliver and I love spending so much time in the south side slopes and hill top neighborhoods (I think you've actually emailed with my husband Matt about this part of the city). The neighborhoods on the hills of the Northside are equally weird and wonderful, if you haven't checked them out.

ReplyDeleteDid you notice the AMAZING modern house that juts out above the Emerald Art Glass place? For the life of me I can't figure out how they built it!
ReplyDeleteYou can see my father-in-law's house on the slope in your second to last picture.
