Merry Post Christmas

Portraits of the Past
Last week we had a gala of sorts at AiP. Not just for the holidays but to celebrate The Art Institute of Pittsburgh written by Jacquelyn Felix Fisher and E. W. Goodman of AiP.

Happenings
I’ve got some follow up thoughts and a good example of how someone would want to manage their online search even though they might care less. But more on that in a later post. Family Mustings A few minutes ago I got an email from my dad with a link to the news story about …
