The list has officially been created. Now I know it says 'bucket list' which is traditionally used in reference to a list of things a person wants to do/experience prior to death, but I felt that the saying was good for my intentions as well. Since I have moved to a town near Pittsburgh and plan on staying out here, then I minus well have a list of things for me to do so that I truly become a real 'Pittsburgher.' So here it is, my list. This list is of activities, sights, experiences, foods, and in general anything I have been told I must do, see, experience, or try to become a true Pittsburgher. I plan on completing this list by June 20th, 2015, yes exactly one year from today since today is when the list was made. Of course any additions are highly possible since I obviously do not know of everything to do and see in the area, but once it is on the list, it is on the list. Suggestions are greatly appreciated.
