Escape to The Yinzers Getaway, my historic childhood home in upper Lawrenceville, which is lightly splashed with nostalgic Pittsburgh memorabilia.
You will find everything immaculately cleaned and redd up for yinz! What you will NOT find is a ‘cookie cutter,’ prefabricated space with an owner living in a different country or state.
I am your LOCAL host, Scott (Magician Who Makes IC Lite Disappear), United States Navy Veteran, and Retired Professional Firefighter for the City of Pittsburgh, who lives 'right up the crick.'
