Goodbye to the O – Original Hot Dog Shop- Oakland Pittsburgh
My friend Roberta sent me a Post-Gazette article this evening, An elegy to the ‘O’: A beloved hot dog shop closes after 60 years written by Mick Stinelli and Dan Gigler. It told about the sad and sudden closing of The Original Hot Dog Shop. A long time late night favorite in the heart of Oakland adjacent to University of Pittsburgh. Upon closing they donated “7 tons of potatoes to charity”. (They were famous for their fries)
We’d get a couple of hot dogs and share the huge order of fries, sometimes before a Poetry Reading at Hemingway’s. Or after. No matter what time you ate there, it was a familiar and reliable taste and experience.
Here’s a photo I took of the landmark from a 2010 blog post.

Maura’s Elementary School Choir sang before the hockey game tonight. After the Hockey game we came outside to this night time scene. The Historic Landmark.
Union Station Arch, Arena District Columbus Ohio.
“The lone remnant of the once grand entrance arcade of Columbus Union Station, this relocated arch was designed by Daniel Burnham and now serves as a focal point of the Arena District. Built in 1897”

Ballparklights Pittsburgh PNC Park
I reread the rules of the #JanuaryLight challenge and the title is to end in the word light. Hence the title Ballparklights. I don’t think/know it’s in any dictionary, connected, but I’m trying to adhere to the guidelines.
