November 9, 2008 8. tripping.
Why we moved to Pittsburgh: It’s just a 15-minute drive from home to the Sharp Edge in Friendship.
OK. That’s not the only reason. But having easier access to the stuff we like to do was a big reason we started looking, and now that we’re here, we’ve been amazed again and again how easy things can be.
A trip to Ikea to buy a table for our dining room? About 15 minutes. Need a couple things from the hardware store? There’s a great local shop in Bellevue, just a couple of minutes up California Avenue.
And the Sharp Edge? Although we hadn’t been there for a while, the bartenders still know who we are — even though it took us an hour just to get there from our last home in Butler. Compared with that, tonight’s drive was blissfully short.
We’re going to like this. A lot.

That place is about 20 minutes from me. We need to coordinate cells because I really like it there and would appreciate new Sharp Edge friends.

Same her I can walk over to that sharp edge. You know, the Crafton location might be closer to you guys if you didn’t know.

Norm: Crafton would be closer, and Sewickley is just five minutes away. But we’re stubborn, and we like the Emporium.
