Let’s use the spirit of Halloween to Help Us Be More Human All Year ‘Round 

on
Mom celebrating the Halloween spirit Halloween is a season of fun, costumes , and candy . Indeed, it has become a favorite of mine. The kids get excited about their costumes, and spending the evening visiting neighbors and receiving candy in response to their declaration of, " Trick or Treat "! All around the country, neighbors open their doors and give candy to anyone who shows up seeking it. Upon reflection, it is a beautiful tradition that embodies the generosity of the human spirit. I was talking to someone yesterday and commented about how much I have grown to enjoy it and wished that it could last for more than one night.

Wordless Wednesday: Summer Adventures in Pittsburgh

on
Our daughter at PPG Center, Pittsburgh, Pa.

I just LOVE this photo because it truly captures the fun that is possible in Pittsburgh in the summertime!

Indeed, Pittsburgh is a great place to be in the summertime. Because the weather can be crappy, a lot, Pittsburghers seem to enjoy nice days as much or more than folks in other parts of the country. Also, the city really embraces summer. There are countless fountains for kids to run through like the one above. There are also free outdoor events that encourage a sense of community and an appreciation of the outdoors. If you're interested in learning more about upcoming events like some free concerts that are coming up, click here. There are also several concert series in and around Pittsburgh which make summer a great time to party in Pittsburgh, for free! (For a link to the schedule, click here.)

How do you enjoy summer in your town?!
