Midsummer is unusually cool this year with July being more Seattle-esque than the searing summer heat of Pittsburgh. I had a more Pittsburgh July when I was in Alaska last month! You would find the cooler weather a nice break from the inhuman and torturous weather that you are probably encountering over there I am sure.
There have been announcements that some of you may be coming home earlier than previously planned! Such good news probably spreads fast and those so affected may be aware, if not, I am glad to be the first to inform you.
Pittsburgh is hosting the Forrest Wood Cup Bass Tournament. This is reputedly the richest bass-fishing championship in the world. The winner of this best-of-the-best fishing competition will garner $1 million for his or her efforts! In this outsider’s opinion, that is not bad money for doing something millions of folks do everyday all summer for free…

Sports Update:
The Pittsburgh Steelers returned to training camp at St. Vincent College on Friday! This is the first step to the process of repeating their Super Bowl run, and defending their title of Champions of the World!
The Pirates have traded just about all of their talent, and are still holding tight to last place … well done Pirates!
The good news is, the Steelers and Penguins are STILL World Champions, making Sixburgh the defending City of Champions!
I hope to have photos of the Steelers in camp at a later date.
