back from the city of steel

just returned from a successful weekend at pittsburgh's laudable handmade arcade.

handmade arcade, pittsburgh

pittsburghers sure are super nice, and i dare say, the biggest football fans on the planet. it was hard not to notice the number of fair attendants ablaze in gold and black. and i must mention the entire set of pittsburgh steeler luggage that came off the aiport carousel just in front of my indistinguishable black rollie bag - it was hard to ignore (of course, it was picked up by a couple in matching p'burgh steelers jackets and hats). we're talking mega-fans.

here are some great photos from the weekend provided by handmade arcade-sanctioned photographer, larry rippel.

a big holla and thanks go out to julie, alison, jennifer, and the rest of the HA organizers. they really outdid themselves this year: the enormity of the crowds, the plentitude of volunteers, the variety of vendors... all in all, the day couldn't have gone any smoother. thanks, ladies!
