Steel City

What I have for you today are some iPhone photos from a three day jaunt in Pittsburgh. I basically took the best parts of my favorite days in the 'Burgh over the last few years and then crammed them all into less than a 48-hour time span.

Breakfast at Pamela's Diner, midmorning coffee in Squirrel Hill, playing in the fountains at South Side Works, escaping the heat of the day at the $1 movie theater in West Mifflin, wine during happy hour at the Porch, dinner at Nakama (and dessert next door at Edward Marc Chocolatier), a ride up the incline at sunset, and drinks in Shadyside (the $3 goblets of beer at Mario's are quite a deal).  

Lemon and vanilla latte at Commonplace Coffeehouse in Squirrel Hill

View from the top of the Monongahela Incline at sunset; Pittsburgh is the City of Bridges

And some proper photos of bucolic Pennsylvania backcountry, shot with my Nikon in the Laurel Highlands of the Allegheny Mountains.
