Pittsburgh is hilly!

I just got back from a great trip to Pittsburgh.  It just so happened that the weekend that I was there was the quarterly art crawl and also a great new exhibit at the Mattress Factory.  Pittsburgh is a great city and I definitely recommend going there! It was surprising how it felt like as if you were in the mountains and then...poof...the city appeared between a giant landmass and the convergence of three rivers. At parts, the city felt like the Hollywood Hills or San Francisco and then other times like Cleveland or Boston.  If you are thinking about a fun weekend trip try Pittsburgh...the drive is quite scenic and seems much faster than driving to Chicago. I will post on the Pittsburgh arts scene in the upcoming posts.
