Rounding the Corner Pittsburgh Marathon Mile 21
Rounding the corner Pittsburgh Marathon Mile 21. From the archives. Sorry to not identify runner- he was a leader by a large margin. Weekly Photo Challenge is Corner- Highland Avenue and Bryant Street
La Esquina, New York City
CORNER Ben H. at WordPress created the weekly photo challenge
La Esquina, New York City 114 Kenmare Street, Soho – seemed a perfect response.
I was standing catty-corner(ed), watching traffic whiz by, taking a few photographs when I was visiting my sister.
I’m not in NYC today- from the archives.

Anise or vanilla? They are delicate and delicious.
The City Responds
The mayor has a Response Center set up and you can call 311 and complain or report a situation that needs attention.
I’ve called about excessive litter at the base of the Duquesne Incline, a hornet nest on a city tree , a streetlight was out and needed to be replaced and last week I called about stop sign on Larimer Avenue that was blocked by tree branches snd it couldn’t be seen.
This morning I was driving to Zeke’s get coffee grounds for my house guests and look who was working hard to rectify the very problem I reported!
Meet John (everyone calls him Johnny)
Thank you for responding, John!
Views from Fineview
Fineview is certainly named appropriately. It is a fine view from this vantage point.
A neighborhood I’d not visited before…went there with a fellow artist J. on Saturday night. Pittsburgh from the North Side of the city.

Overgrown in Pittsburgh Exhibit, a Friendship Bagel and an Artistic Tree Grate on Penn Avenue in Garfield
An eclectic post
A sneak peek from the catalog of the show. Tonight I just had the old iPhone with me and didn’t capture the artwork. Took a few shots of the artist and a few family members- I didn’t ask if it would be okay to blog them so if you are in the Pittsburgh Area you have until July 15th to experience these stunning paintings in person. 
Lots happening on Penn Avenue as it was a first Friday and it’s called Unblurred
-art galleries open and the street abuzz with activity.
We were walking to the Irma Freeman Center for the Imagination where my friend Joan Brindle was having an art opening along with 3 other artists Roshida Abira Ali, Jim Brindle and Irma Freeman. The show will be open until July 15th
Friendship Bagel complete with an Ode to a Spring Meadow Poem on the sidewalk in Garfield on Penn Avenue.
And when we crossed the street to ensure our friend V got in her car, I captured one of the new Artistic Tree Grates that have been installed recently as part of the Penn Avenue Reconstruction
How about this artistic tree grate?
Woodpecker in Highland Park Tree Stump
We were walking across the street to the playground and saw two woodpeckers pecking away on this rotting tree stump. One flew away. iPhone shots today.
You can watch the one pecking away in this video .
