For a second I thought you meant Falling Waters, WV.

No, but there is a Frank Lloyd Wright House in Florence, AL that I have been to.

The clean lines and the symmetry of it, combined with the modernist furniture and the library made me want to jack off.

It's pretty much out in the woods.
Pittsburg is the only place around where we stopped on our architectural tour.

There is a Chihuly exhibition at the Phipps Botanical Garden.

My museum is organizing a trip to Pittsburgh for November to include Falling Water on the itinerary. I want to try and go but not sure if my schedule will work out.

Bustette took me there after the Great Squirrgling Of '05, to cheer me up. One of the nicest things anybody ever did for me.
