Nov 7 Run: Colfax School for a run in Frick Park

Hoping to catch the last bits of fall colors, next weeks run will be in Frick Park - meet at Colfax School on Beechwood Boulevard.

Today being Halloween we ran through Homewood Cemetery - always a favorite route of mine. On our way there we admired an elaborately decorated yard complete with a miniature haunted house and eyeball lights. This, as well as our mini costumes, put us in spirit of the holiday. The cemetery was peaceful as always and even in the early morning light you could catch glimpses of the bright leaves. The cemetery deer were out - we saw at least 5 of them. I know they are quite common now but it there is still a little magic in the moment when both human and deer pause to look at each other. On our return we took a quick tour through Smithfield Cemetery as well. See the attached photo of us In Homewood Cemetery - thanks to PTB for providing this archival worth photo.

We send her lots of healing wishes out to Carrie who early in the run turned her ankle and had to return to Squirrel Hill.
