We were the only family in our neighborhood (rural Westmoreland County) to have an Obama yard sign. I'm very surprised it didn't get stolen! There were actually signs for Romney out here that said, "Vote for the American". Disgusting.

Jeannette was a pretty bustling place at one time. Do you have any of the Jeannette Glass? Beautiful stuff.
