I think Pittsburgh is a pretty beautiful city, especially the way downtown looks. Very well planned city, at least from the look of it. A good friend of mine lives in Cranberry (a sprawlsville to the north from what I see) and he hates it, but it sure looks perty.

You should rewrite that Lynyrd Skynyrd song and make it "Sweet Home Pennsylvania" ( Pennsylvania and Alabama have the same number of syllables so it would work with the melody). So you don't live in PA anymore? By the way, I am very intrigued by this picture for some reason.

Those houses on that steep steep hill with the tall foundations and everything just looks cool. I notice this a lot when driving through PA and it gives a street and neighborhood a very distinct feel. It's like San Francisco except without all of the freaks with like 10 earings walking down the street

I love Pennsylvania. The only part is, when you drive threw the cut threws threw the mountains rocks fall. When I was going to Philly with some of my fam. a huge bolder fell on a car making it flip over and more rocks fell when we were driving by it(there were alredy rescue crews there). One rolled of the cut threw and landed like 9 feet away from our car. We were like the last 6 cars threw befor they closed the highway down. Besides that Pennsylvania is realy cool.
