Two homes. One mirror.

Pittsburgh is frozen solid right now. We’re still digging out from the heavy snow of Winter Storm Fern, and yeah, the cold has been really biting. But this is the city I grew up near, the place I’ve logged 15+ years in, where I've built my life as an adult. The cold is part of the deal. It’s part of who I am, even if I don't stick around for it forever.

But the reflection? That’s Playa Puerto Hermina. That’s the bloodline. That’s the place I’ve never lived, but feels like I never left.

With Bad Bunny taking the Super Bowl halftime stage this weekend, the island energy is loud right now, even if the 412 itself is quiet under the ice.

My wife and I built this image not to show "reality vs. fantasy," but to show the whole picture. Ice on the frame, salt in the air.

Wepa. Yinz.
