Good Morning

Sherri, your post makes me want to move to Pittsburgh.  I love the thought of walking down a street and smelling fresh coffee and bread in the morning.  A large cup of coffee, accompanied by fresh bread and butter, sounds perfect for breakfast to me.  The buildings in the Oakland neighborhood are incredibly colorful.  I love them.  It looks like a lively area.

You describe city that i have said needs to have these components to be successful. We are at our very best when we have a variety inhabiting the same area. Kudos to Pittsburgh.

YES! It does look busy and happy , in all the pictures. Everything nice and clean and painted. Just like here the only thing is the roads need a lot of work I noticed . It is the same here, they only patch the worst potholes etc and never lay down a new road. Thank you for the lovely pictures though it looks happy and very settled.

I really love seeing all of your Pittsburgh photos because I have never been in Pennsylvania,  not once in in my 88 years.   We always did our travelling Westward Ho!
