Cooperation is Everything When You Expect a Good Turnout

Today is a rare day for our immediate family as we get to come together and celebrate the Easter holiday weekend with our three daughters, their spouses, and our two grandchildren. Work obligations make family gatherings hard these days. Our youngest daughter is preparing the ham and the rest of us... Sign in to see full entry.

I Believe That We Are Ready for Tomorrow's Easter Celebration

Our adult children dropped a few hints that they miss getting Easter baskets, so we prepared one for each of them to share with their spouses. We will finish them off with a few household gifts after we make a run to Wally World today. I guess that you are never too for an Easter basket. Due to... Sign in to see full entry.

I Caught This Impatient Little Thief This Morning in the Act

I obviously didn't get out to the yard with the daily feed and treats that the squirrels have grown to expect, so he helped himself to one of my many bird feeders that have those black seeds that he prefers. Sign in to see full entry.

It's That Time of Year Once Again and I've Been Busy

My small boro and our surrounding communities are hellbent on cleaning up the crapped-up hillsides that are eyesores that run along our many roads, rail trails, and river banks. Every year in the spring, we clean up the litter that is found tossed out alongside the many highways and back roads that... Sign in to see full entry.

A Special Request

Bad service has become a common theme at fast food joints. It seems that before the big paydays came into effect, the food was better, the workers cared a little more, and the prices were much lower. John loves the quarter-pounders and whoppers, but our last few trips to Mickey D's and Burger King... Sign in to see full entry.

The Calm After the Storm...We Had Hail, Flurries, and Rain...Now It's Sunny

Our Pittsburgh weather can't seem to make up its mind today. It is the perfect April fool's joke as we are being tricked just about every half an hour. I don't mind the rain, but the damaging winds are giving my house and yard a really good beating. I woke up to rain early this morning that was... Sign in to see full entry.

It's a Wet, Chilly, and Miserable Day

Despite looking out the window and seeing a yard full of flowers along with frolicking squirrels and birds, it doesn't feel like spring today. The forecast has predicted rain for most of the day with a high temp of 54. It's days like this that I prefer to stay indoors, watch a few good movies, and... Sign in to see full entry.

A Marvel of Civil Engineering in Pittsburgh, it Was the First of Its Kind

The main entrance into the city from Highway 51, the Liberty Tunnels in Pittsburgh were the first automobile tunnels built in the United States. At one time, they were the longest automobile tunnels in the world with a length of 5, 889 feet. Workers broke ground on the tunnels in December 1919 and... Sign in to see full entry.
