A blog primarily relaying my first-hand experience with all sorts of things that make me happy, especially green building, bikes, art, and whatnot.

Grandpa worked the presses
My grandfather worked for the newspaper in Valparaiso, where I grew up. I think he actually worked the presses at one point, but was doing editing and layout when I was old enough to go to his work. Riding home tonight, I happened to pass the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette building when it was dark outside (thanks, daylight savings) and the press room lights were on. I never knew they actually printed the papers there. I figured it was just offices and administrative stuff. Now, I have a new destination to swing by on my way home from work to gawk and the fun, beautiful machinery.
