Icon20 Pittsburgh GTG 6-17-2011

Pittsburgh (Pa. ) GTG 6-17-2011

Don't make us call all 39,077 of yunz!

Post here to subscribe to the current low down and for frequent updates!

We suspect that there will be many people able to attend, because of the location.

Y'all would be hard-pressed to find a better view than the Pittsburgh skyline from atop Mt Washington whilst chowing down on 4-star cuisine.

...and I knows my 4-star cuisine. As long as the stars are on the Armour hotdog package.

Icon10 I'm so very pleased with the prospect of seeing all yunz again!

Here are some very personal pics... (Resized to save scrolling.)
























We'll have more fun than these kids!






Well, maybe NOT as much fun as these two had!

ALL pictures ©2011Tooch. (If you steal my pics, I steal your watch! )

Would you like more notice, time wise, Rob?!

I would be hard pressed to visit you, so to see you here would be a BIG bonus.

Plus, you'd get to see the rest of our fellow WIS from "down here."

Glad you are just figuring that out!
I dunno...you might get someone else who finds it sweet as well.

I just enjoy seeing such a sweet picture of you two, I can't help being a romantic at heart... But YES the skyline pictures are beautiful as well.

The Duquesne Incline shuttles peeps up and down Mt. Washington.

I have a few shots shot from Mt. Washington, but I don't have the time to locate 'em.

She is calling me. Sleepy time.

You mean the incline ? You can ride the incline up the side of Mt Washington to get to the three or four great restaurants up there, or you can go by car via a slightly circuitous route. We'd most likely ride the incline - it's a big part of the 'burgh experience.
