What's Up?

Joe's been holding down the fort at Blog-Lebo with characteristic reliability; I've been focusing on work and family and other things (including my other blogs, at times). Mt. Lebanon is chugging along nicely these days, it seems to me. Soon enough there will be more to discuss regarding the high school renovation.

There are small things of note: There is Mt. Lebanon's decision this year not to hire deer sharpshooters (the uptick in the number of deer in my neighborhood is already noticeable). The number of ad pages in MTL magazine is obviously down; the issue that arrived the other day was the thinnest in my memory. The number of quality homes sitting unsold on the Mt. Lebanon market strikes me as unusually high, even for this slow time of year. I went to Casey Smith's Pittsburgh Rare blog to see the latest statistics - and the blog is gone. I hope that Casey is OK.

But no town is spared the Great Recession. If you have a buck to spare, buy something at a Mt. Lebanon business. The dresses in the windows at Anne Gregory these days are especially nice. And if we can find a convenient day and a willing host (Rich and Melanie, how about it?), perhaps we'll organize another one of our occasional winter-time Blog-Lebo meet-and-greets.

Having a little get together at Aldo's was always nice :-)
