The bus system will get you where you need to go and you will find plenty to do. The Aquarium is pretty cool also. I grew up there. Go Seahawks. It is a shame we lost but what's done is done. Congrats Pittsburgh, you made one heckofa run. With that being said, I just picked up my second ford last night and I am sure I will be spending plenty of time here.

To really be objective ya gotta figure in the Colts or the former Browns to the equation.

Rest assured I will be wearing my black and gold all weekend, which is probably why I won't get hired!

Gotta represent!....I didn't suffer a large bruise on my right arm, extra holes on my old steel toes (that I found a few days later), and a more then decent Monday morning hangover for nothing!

Thanks for all the tips y'all.... (or yinzes!)... I will try and make the best of all of them...

Very proud to be living in the 7th ward of the (bankrupt) City of Pittsburgh! (<very many tonight).

...PS.... hey pgh_medic... do you work for RWV in the North Hills?

Oh... and by the way.. the Ravens are light on the sneakers and weak in the wrists...Baltimore still isn't no real city....(you wish you were even close to the empty store-fronts of Cleveland)

Nope, that's a couple hundred miles south in Tillamook, Oregon, home of the cheese.

The Museum of Flight is AT Boeing Field, but it's not the "Boeing" museum of flight. It's owned/run by a group not affilliated with Boeing. They do, however, have a close relationship, as you might imagine. You will find a heap of cool aircraft, including the original Air Force One, a Concorde, an SR71, etc. there. Well worth a couple of hours or all day.

go to the micro brews.... there are a ton. There is one in the Pike's market area, but I usually have to wander around to find it. Also, hit the Rock Bottom brewery. They are a national micro brew chain but put a local twist on each one. When I worked for Boeing and was in Seattle, Chicgo, or Phoenix I would make sure I got there at least once. Of course, being a member has its privaleges as well...
