Pittsburgh Flash Fiction Gazette

Woma As Art

The high hit the low 80s today in Pittsburgh.  And when the clouds cleared away, the Old Soldier had to leave his workstation and take a walk in the sunshine.  I picked up two books from the floor near the sofa and decided this was a good day to return them to the public library, Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh.

Outside, it felt like summer.  I walked down South Craig which is full of espresso bars, fast food joints, cafes and ethic restaurants.

A Greek Food Festival was set up directly across from Carnegie Museum.  Children played in the new-fenced in playground in front of the museum as parents and guardians sat on benches in the playground in the sun.

People posed in front of large, abstract art structures to have their photos taken.

Large, white tents were set up on the grass of Schenley Plaza.  Something must have been going on.  A few people even sun bathed on the grass of the plaza.

And the buildings and lawns of the campus of the University of Pittsburgh spread out as far as the eye could see with the Cathedral of Learning towering solid and gray 44 stories over the neighborhood.

I was happy to be alive and to be a writer.
