Feb 14 Valentines Run: Coffee Tree or ?

After our epic trek in the park we regrettably forgot to pick a site for next week's run so I am selecting the Squirrel Hill Coffee Tree default meeting place. If someone wants to volunteer to lead a run from somewhere else please let me and/or the group know.

You can see from Roye's photos that four of us (Roye, Virginia, Karen and I) showed up for a cold but wonderful run/walk in Frick Park. Surprisingly we saw no one until close to the end of our run so it felt as if we were trekking deep in the woods - quiet except for the occasional bird song - well OK, we did hear the cars on the Parkway when were on the Braddock trail but we left them soon enough. As you can imagine the park was beautiful, each vignette a classic winter scene from misty frozen streams to paths framed by snow ladened trees.

Thanks to Virginia who drove, we were still able to enjoy a coffee visit, although it was shorter than usual because we had already been out for long time.
