Thanks to Virginia for the Sunday report - After Dave's bird walk was cancelled due to tornado warnings, Teri, Dave and I decided to stay closer to home. Glad to hear you had enough cars for the return.
Here's Sunday's report. I'm not aware of anyone suggesting a run for next week, June 13, so if no one else comes up with a route, I can lead a run in Shadyside. Flat run, starting at the Mellon Park parking lot on Fifth Ave., at the end of Beechwood Blvd.
We had a collection of adventurous souls turn out under threatening skies this morning, with 5 of us running to the run and three others -- Tom, Carol and Cheryl -- meeting us at the PPG Plaza fountain to start the water-themed run. With the Point State Park fountain turned off until 2011, we took a tour of 15 other fountains around Downtown, at Station Square, and next to PNC Park on the riverwalk. Some of them were on, some were off, and one was hidden in a building. Our tour also included soda fountains and the water fountains at Tom's office. We didn't exactly get the view we were expecting of the Andrew Carnegie inflatable in the middle of the Allegheny River. Apparently overnight they moor it along the walkway in front of PNC park, so it was a sad sight with his face partially submerged under water.
