We drove up to Squirrel Hill to pick up Aiello’s pizza for Supper. On the way home we switched drivers so I could photograph the movie making scene at the Pittsburgh Theological Seminary in East Liberty. We didn’t stop, but I caught a glimpse of the action as we went by. Perhaps it’s the Tom Hanks movie everyone is abuzz about. Check out the cars!
There’s an eagle statue standing guard by the parking lot at the East Liberty Post Office parking lot. He looks like he was once on a building. I tried to research his story but came up empty.

Found a new rocking horse in the city on Wednesday night. East Liberty near the Fireside Grill. Where Zeke’sCoffee roasts their beans. Must be Zeke’s mascot?
Here’s a Gallery of rocking horses seen around Pittsburgh, from previous blogposts.
