Hello from Pittsburgh

Hi guys. Just wanted to say hello and thanks. I spent 5 years working in a sign and graphics shop in Illinois. I touched about every area of the business starting from production and working my way to managment. During that time, I learned a lot from this forum. Recently started my own company and looking forward to contributing to the forum.

Thanks
Bryant

BURGETTSTOWN, is the high school i went to. live closer to AVELLA, in a little town called PENOWA. familiar with morgantown as i went to PENN STATE fayette campus.........couple years.
 
Don't think I've ever made it by Avella or Burgettstown. Had a buddy who lived in Canonsburg that we would visit all the time. Probably as close to Avella as I've been. Any good restaurants or spots to check out over there that would warrant a trip from the city?

Hello from 20 miles north. I was born in Pittsburgh and this is my 30th year in the trade, which has been on the downslide these past 8 years or so. I am gradually switching to small custom painted signs and logo design only. Signs will be merely a hobby.
I'm hosting the Walldog meet in Butler in 2016 if you wanna come up and help paint.
Love....Jill
