While Stopped at the Red light

This house jumped out at me- well, to my eyes. I’ve driven by it a thousand times but never saw it before.

The Allegheny River is below the back of the house.

While at a red light on North Avenue

There was a really loud noise behind me while I was stopped at the red light on North Avenue.

It was a helicopter Allegheny General Hospital. AHN LifeFlight (Allegheny Health Network)

You don’t want to need their emergency services but isn’t it reassuring to know LifeFlight is available for critical care 24/7?

“…..regional emergency helicopter and critical care ground transportation services for critically ill and injured patients who need immediate specialized care. LifeFlight is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.”

In 2015 I posted -Grateful for MedFlightAir Ambulances in Columbus Ohio.

Frank Sinatra Looking Out a Window

While stopped at a red light, I looked to my left and wondered about that crazy middle door in the center of the second floor. Going where?
When I uploaded the photo on the computer tonight, I noticed Frank Sinatra peering out the upper window.

Oh, Hello Linens Truck

I was parked on Butler Street in Lawrenceville.

My phone in hand.

A truck pulled up to the red light alongside my car -and stopped. I felt a presence. Looked up and out the driver’s window.

Oh, hello there!

Light turned green. The chef appeared. The truck pulled away into the flow of traffic.

Tugboats, Trains and a Tanker Truck

These past few days driving around the city I’ve seen a lot of freight trains. I pulled over to the curb in the Strip District by the junkyard to catch the Wheeling Lake Erie cars overhead. And while visiting at my friend’s house I love to watch the tugboats push the barges on the Ohio River. The tanker truck was in front of me on the RDFleming Bridge while at a red light. Lots of demolition on the hillside there, too. Right now, as I write this post just before bed, I can hear the train whistle repeat itself loudly in the night.

Pulled up next to me at the red light

Last week in Columbus, I sat in the passenger seat with Laura at the wheel. Good thing. Brought that trusty phone up to my eye and I can’t really add him to my People at Work series

but perhaps Animals at Work in the city?

Oh hello there!
