You Drop What?
I’m not certain who started it, my guess is probably the New Years Eve Times Square party in 1908 when they lowered a crystal ball down a pole starting at one minute to midnight to celebrate the beginning of the new year. Since then all over North America other towns have decided to drop their […]
Setting the Holiday Mood in Pittsburgh
The holiday season in Pittsburgh begins with a bang — a lot of bangs to be accurate. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Amanda Changuris (@amandachanguris) I’m not sure what it is about this town and its pyromania, but I have witnessed more fireworks in the last 10 months than in my entire life […]
“That Quaint Little Village”
I hear it all the time when talking about visiting Italy, or any other country in Europe: “We just loved this quaint little village. It had all these little shops and cafes; we could have spent hours there.” I’m sure if you travel, or you know people who do, you’ve heard the same thing (or […]
The United States Sailboat Show
If it had ever been suggested to me that I’d be spending the day walking around the harbor in Annapolis, Maryland in my bare feet on a damp fall day in the beginning of October I’d think you were crazy. Well, you’re not. I was in my bare feet and loving it. The 45th United […]
Why We’re Not Worried About Ebola
We’ve all heard the anchors and reporters on the news saying “starting this weekend airports are clamping down on passengers from West Africa” or “major changes to air travel in the U.S. to combat Ebola.” Statements like these conjure images of draconian methods being employed to anyone traveling by air, causing chaos at every airport […]
Baltimore’s Inner Harbor
The city of Baltimore’s harbor area wasn’t always the tourist mecca it is now, but today it’s considered a model for redevelopment of post-industrial waterfronts.
Galloping to ComicCon
It’s the first week in September and that means a trip to Baltimore for me and my little sister and the Baltimore ComicCon. I know that we’ve mentioned before on No Kids that spending time together is important in a relationship, even a relationship with your sibling. Each year Andrea and I pick out some […]
One Last Beach Weekend
The summer is winding down on the east coast of the U.S. and many are thinking about one last dash to the beach. A spot popular to many in Maryland and Pennsylvania is Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. But the seaside community is more than just sand and surf. The Junction & Breakwater Trail located between the […]
Kayaking the Allegheny
Ever since the weather warmed to a reasonable temperature here in our new hometown of Pittsburgh, I’ve been watching clusters of bright yellow kayaks slip up and down the shoreline of the Allegheny River. I’ve never been in a kayak, but it looked like fun and I’m a big fan of anything on or around […]
A Night at the Theater with King Arthur (and a rabbit with sharp, pointy teeth)
The phrase “who knew?” is said a lot these days in the Changuris household, especially in reference to our new home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The “who knew?” of this post has to do with the theater scene and that there are six theaters in the Cultural District as venues for the symphony, opera, theater troupes, […]
