Pittsburgh celebrates 250 with concert, fireworks at the Point

PostGazette: "The busiest weekend of the region's year-long 'sesquibicentennial' will begin with a more-than-100-vessel Three Rivers aquatic parade and end with the city's largest-ever display of aerial pyrotechnics. 'Imagine Pittsburgh' fireworks will be launched from 17 sites on the Three Rivers, the North Side and Downtown."

This is so exciting. I have never lived in a place with such a long and celebrated history. I was born and raised and attended undergrad in the Rocky Mountain west, where things just aren't that old. 250 years is impressive. I wish I were able to take part in the festivities, they sound like a lot of fun!
