A Tour from the Master's Grandaughter
Submitted By: Fred Steinberg
A delightful trip to the Brandwine Region, visiting Winterthur Estate, Longwood Gardens and the Brandywine Battlefield, was highlighted by the Brandywine River Museum. We knew that the Museum contained an outstanding collection of three generations of Wyeths. We hooked into a just started tour led by a very knowledgeable young lady. In the section devoted to Andrew, someone asked whether he visited the Museum.The guide said: "Grandpa comes here almost every month." What a kick that was for us.
Andy Warhol Museum
Submitted By: Tall Cathy
I've always been fascinated with pop culture and have always held a strong interest in the history of rock and roll. Because of this, one of my all-time favorite places in Pittsburgh is the Andy Warhol Museum. I am a huge fan of his artwork, and as a music fan, it's really cool to see how rock and art come together.

A first-class ride through Pittsburgh
Submitted By: CJ....
Head on over to Oakland and check out the Carnegie Museums. Get a great view up on Mount Washington. Another really cool part of town you have to see is the Strip District---and if you've never had one, a sandwich from Primanti Brothers is a must.
Steel City culture....and ice cream, too!

Start early. Pittsburgh's got a lot goin' on, and you'll need the extra time to check it all out (the city owns the Superbowl title, ya know, so pay attention to it!).
