I’d never been to Raleigh until 7/21/07, and was actually visiting to see Harry Potter on the IMAX and Exploris. My friends and I had no idea that there was a street festival going on that day, but were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. I have to say that the city does know how to show folks a great time. I was really impressed with the festivities that were going on and the cleanliness of downtown. I actually began doing some research on Raleigh when I returned back home and found that there are several new buildings and skyscrapers going up in the near future. This is going to be great for the look of the city and its skyline. Additionally, I would like to comment on your Pittsburgh photos as well. I have visited Pittsburgh several times because I’m a “die-hard” Steelers fan and actually graduated from high school with Heath Miller (#83). Thanks for all of your awesome photography work and I can’t wait to see more of your work in the future!!!

We’ll see if they have another one next summer. I assume they will, the crowd was still pretty large from this year.

P.S. - I think your caps lock is on.

Tommy - Interestingly enough, my fiance and I crossed paths with her on a flight to Boston last March that was delayed for hours because of a snowstorm and rerouted through Charlotte. She was trying out for the a Patriot’s cheerleading spot.
