Downtown Pittsburgh - Sun Flare

While walking along downtown on our ghost tour, snapped this photo of the buildings and crane and liked the way the sun flare POPPED!

Made it through the last day of school yesterday. The boys' elementary school does a "5th Grade Walk". All the classes line the halls at the end of the day and the 5th grade classes make their way out of the school for the last time while the other grades cheer them and give them high 5's! It was quite an emotional thing to see. I shot a little video of it if you would like to watch :)

  9. The only thing I remember with certainty about graduating from 5th grade was the ceremonial tossing of our notebooks into the air.
