I’ve been working on a special project that has me doing some research in and around the City of Pittsburgh. That might not come as much of a surprise to any regular readers, but I am learning some things about my old hometown.
One of the things I knew but had to confirm was the order of names for The Sisters—my three favorite bridges—the 6th Street, 7th Street and 9th Street bridges. They are also the Roberto Clemente, Andy Warhol and Rachel Carson bridges. Pittsburgh has named many bridges after famous sons and daughters. The Sixteenth Street Bridge has been similarly designated as the David McCullough Bridge.
If you’re unfamiliar with David McCullough, let’s just say that he was a historian and that he won both a Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award—twice! He also received the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Not bad for one lifetime.
With David McCullough on my mind, I was happy to find a meme that spoke to something that he and I both enjoy.

Note: After seeing the passion for libraries shown in some of the comments, I feel I should add a link to this post about a threat to our libraries by Judy at New England Garden and Thread.
All five of my current books are now available in audio book form thanks to Amazon KDP’s Virtual Voice process. The voice is AI generated, but I can honestly say, it’s pretty darn good. The audio books are reasonably priced (all below $7 US) and, if you already own the Kindle version and want to add an audio version, you can do that for $1.99. There is a five-minute sample on the book page for each book. If you’re interested, click on any of the Dreamer’s Alliance book links below the image or on the link below for my latest book.
