what an unexpected treat this series has been... you have taken some of the most beautiful Pittsburgh photos ever posted on this forum, RamsayHank... you really are skilled at capturing the "topographical city"... and the interaction of urban environment, landscape and people... gorgeous interior shots as well... I'll have to make it out to McConnell's Mill this summer...


and pj3000... your brief reminiscings are always appreciated...
