Now playing: “Renegade” by ATB feat. Heather Nova
I’m making a flight connection in Pittsburgh and I’ve never been to this city before, much less the airport. It’s a beautiful, clean airport that must have been overhauled in recent decades, because I can still see trace remnants of an older facility– peeling paint, rust spots, rare but telling. Of course, I’m biased for any airport whose terminal hub has a soaring ceiling and high windows (sky!) but who’s counting?
Moreover, after strolling a terminal for ten minutes looking for a power outlet, I discovered a row of seats partially walled off by glass separators with power outlets staggered in between them. An area specifically for laptop users! There were a few of us, but now there are two people in this row of 15-odd seats– a blonde lady on the farthest right end and me on the farthest left. (And she just left. There goes the neighborhood.)
