Okay, I'm going to try and sum it all up right now. Lowell Mass was amazing little city. Their downtown area is amazing. There is a little Irish pub there that has some amazing beer and even better food. I went there with a couple of guys from Legally Blonde the Musical and we had a great time. Our waitress was rather attractive as well, which is a very nice bonus. The Theater there is a very beautiful building that I would love to personally revisit and photograph. I would also like to go through and say that regardless if Boston is the city that is full of Toll Booths and Tunnels, it is a beautiful city. I didn't have hardly as long of time in there as I wanted to have, but when I have the chance to go back, I really really really want to go through and photograph it properly and do a proper posting of the city.
Pittsburgh PA is a beautiful city as well. Most of my time in the city was done at night and when I was tired, but from what I remember, it is a city that I wouldn't mind coming back to sometime soon. The problem that I really kind of had was in I-70 at night in PA. I am sure that the drive is a beautiful one, but when you are driving by yourself, through there for the first time, it's at night, snowing, ice is on the roads, it can put one on edge. I would really love to go back through there during the day time, in the summer (when I went through was on Dec. 19th 2010) but I am sure that it a beautiful sight going through there.
Columbus Oh is an interesting city to say the least. I ended up spending most of my next day in the city, and if you don't get off of I-70, you will think that the city is nothing but an industrial city, which from my observation is mostly right, but the airport is a rather nice one, better than MCI (Kansas City International Airport) by far. However, I will give a personal endorsement real quick. If you are ever stranded there in the West side of Columbus and you need a taxi, call up Paul Devitt, the owner of Hilliard Hometown Taxi. he is amazing. The cab fair is cheap (I used him three times in the 12 hours I was there, and the most that i had to pay was $30 when I had to go across town to get from the hotel I was staying at to the Airport). He is a very friendly guy and knows a lot about the city. He is a great guy and will come to get you basically any time of the day, for cheap.
New York City, the little bit of the city that I was able to go through, was more or less what I had pictured it to be in my mind. A little grit, a little bit of the old city feeling going through the Bronx and Queens. I know that it is saturated with "artist" but really, that is another city that I really want to go through and photograph to an extent. I know it will be hard to go through and actually get a shot or two that maybe no one else has, but I believe that I should be able to get SOMETHING that would be at least a little different. But then again I know I need to go through and just do a long road trip and take my camera and redo this trip.
Alas, that might be all that I can write about right now for the Legally Blonde travels, but more and other cities and places will be coming very soon.
