It's indeed a small world. Both of my parents grew up in Braddock, PA, so this post brings back some good memories for me. This article describes well what I can remember from my early childhood... A small hilly town with brick roads and culture- currently transformed into a desolate area with boarded up homes and gangs. The high schools that my parents attended in the early 60's no longer exist. I'm even sorta afraid to drive through there now-a-days. But it looks like this BLM has found a cozy little home there. My dad use to tell stories of rats in back allies of his home that were the size of small dogs. BLMs? I dunno, but funny anyway. I look forward to adding my own BLM pic to this site someday!
