Trip to Pittsburgh

It's been more than a month since I came back from Pittsburgh and finally posting the pictures. I loved the color of the sky, the flowers and the greenery, friendly people and kick back atmosphere. Coming from busy LA it was a nice change of pace. Our MLIS group did a great presentation on economics and though I stayed only a day it was great to see familiar faces.

Here is the view from above:
