by Rick Rogow 12 Aug '09

I have a friend coming to visit this weekend (August 15,16) who's interested in experiencing some good fishing. He lives in Colorado and would like to experience some "eastern" fishing. I am hoping there are some in our neighborhood who could recommend a few good spots around Pgh or within an hour or hour &1/2 of Pgh. Thank you Rick Rogow 412-441-0633 (h)

This will is a large job. Does anyone have a recommendation of an excellent masonry contractor? Also, If you've had your porch replaced, we would greatly appreciate it if you would share your address so that we could drive by and take a look. Many thanks for your time and suggestions.

[Highland Park] maternity clothes and baby supplies needed
by Denise 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Hello excellent HP neighbors,I have had such wonderful luck with this list I am once again going to give it a try. My daughter is pregnant and desperately in need of maternity clothes or even plus sized clothes to wear as she grows in size. She is approximately a size 18 normally. In addition, she and her significant other need a place to live that would be suitable for the three of them but their income is very low. If anyone hears of any type of living arrangement that would be suitable and safe, please write to me or call me. They would be perfect in a home where an older resident needs help with household chores and/or lawn maintenance that could be done in exchange for the room. They are very quiet and not partiers! No smoking, no drugs, no loud music etc. I know it's a long shot but I am very worried about her and hoping for a miracle. Thank you! -- Denise Lohr, Owner PetSitPgh, LLC www.petsitpgh.com 412-956-0787
