Okay, KillarneyRose, 33Girl, kddani & other residents of the 'burgh (mentally or physically): I have to write an article on Things to Do & See While in Pittsburgh for a soccer convention being held here this summer. I'm already disgusted with the logo (a soccerball wearing a hardhat :rolleyes: ) but I'm trying to take the high road.

I've already thought of Kennywood, the various colleges/universities, the Carnegie, Mt. Washington, Duqusne Incline, Primanti's, Georgetowne Inn, the O - anything else I should include?

National Aviary
Phipps Conservatory

Do you want to go into shopping and/or bar mode or not?

The hotel is the Wyndham out next to Robinson Towne Centre, so I think the shopping will take care of itself - though I may throw a mention of Station Square in there (IF I mention the Monongahela Incline - I'd rather they use the Duquesne Incline. Better View, Runs on public support, etc). The bars. Hmmm... There's usually enough liquor to float the Gateway Clipper Fleet, but do you have any favorites to suggest?

I'm having a good old fashioned BBQ at my house after the Awards Breakfast! :)

When my Aunt & Uncle moved to upstate NY from Austin, they missed the Tex-Mex, but really missed the CFS--could get it nowhere!

Two years ago, I was in Tallahassee for my chapter's Founders Day celebration. Our national VP, who is now the President, flew from his home in California (somewhere in the valley) to speak at the banquet. His flight changed over in Atlanta (I think), and went on to Jacksonville. Anyway, he experienced Chick-fil-A for the first time in his life at the airport. You would have thought that he experienced an epiphany! He couldn't stop talking about how good it is. I just e-mailed him that article. I'm willing to bet dollars to doughnuts that he'll be in Chino Hills this weekend.
