Next Sunday we'll start at the Wendy Bennett Trailhead, at the start of Overlook Drive, foot of the Schenley Oval, and lightfoot it through the leafy trails. Remember when the road down into the park was pitch dark, forbidding as the entrance to Mordor? Now it's so bright at 7 it might as well be mid-day. Tempus fugit, or something.
Anyway, we had a lovely run through CMU, Oakland, and - to tell the truth, I can't recall since there was so much talking. But whatever it was, it was a success in rounding up the rogue trio that is often missing from the Sunday runs - and now at least some of us know where they go! Plus we got two pieces of fascinating data on the house across from Tom's: in 1920 it was mistakenly bombed by anarchists, and today it has two exquisite red Chinese symbols flanking the door expressing double happiness in celebration of a wedding. Despite trying I cannot think of how to connect those two, but maybe you will. Other highlights: we are proud to have a Zumba Instructor, a Professional Cuddler, and a soon-to-be new bride in our midst; our daughters are discovering fascinating things in foreign lands; and never let a new father change a baby's diaper in your kitchen.
Treat coming up at the June 29 run: Aimee will lead from her house and give us coffee in her new kitchen! More details forthcoming...
