26 Draft

As I said, I used to live in the area. I've driven through Pittsburgh many times. Including during road construction.

 

There isn’t always road construction

They put that on hold while it snows

 

Many years ago a writer from National Geographic was doing an article on Pittsburgh

He was at a light on Liberty Avenue and out of his window he asked the guy in the car next to him how to get to the Carnegie Museum

The guy in the other car looked left and right and finally said “I’m not real busy now so why don’t you just follow me”

 

And where do you live now?

 

Central PA. Why?

 

Many years before GPS, I was trying to to take my family to the Aviary. I could see it but couldn't figure out to get there as it was surrounded by one way streets so I said the hell with it and put my car in reverse and backed up the one way street to their parking lot.

 

Because it’s all relative. If you’re used to driving in central PA now of course Pittsburgh traffic is going to seem much worse.

 

Love it

 

I lived in Baldwin for 10 years and Monroeville for 5, driving into the city for jobs from both places. I assure you I did not enjoy driving in Pittsburgh rush hour traffic either into or out of the city on its own merits.
