Rust Valley

Last weekend we had a housewarming party in Pittsburgh.  We invited everyone we knew (and several people we didn’t) to help us figure this town out.  Our guests were incredibly generous with their time and expertise. The suggestions range from where to eat, to the best places to take your kids. There are recommendations for mechanics and plumbers, which fountains to play in and where to buy replacement clothes when you get yours wet.

I’ve typed in all the recommendations and put the results over at a new wiki I set up just for this purpose:  RustWiki.  There is already a reasonable font of information over there that we will be using to settle in to our new town.  The food page is particularly fabulous for the categories that people dreamed up (”Best Takeout Items for Vegetarians Whose Kids Eat Spicy Food” is probably the most genius of the lot).

Take a look.  It’s a wiki so feel free to edit it.  If you see stuff missing, please feel free to add it.  In particular, if anyone wants to carry out the same Housewarming scheme in some other Rust Belt city and wants to add the results to the RustWiki, you’re more than welcome.  Mi wiki es su wiki.
