Jun 19 Run: Lowe's in Waterfront

Meet at Lowe's in the Waterfront for a run somewhere near there that may or may not include Kennywood (discussion over coffee was raucous and I did not catch all the details!). Park in the Lowe's parking lot but close to the road not the store.

Run to the run: 6:15AM at the CommonPlace Coffee Shop in Squirrel Hill.

It must be summer:

  • Many people were there
  • We hosted out of town guests both at the run and after
  • We diverted from the original run plan (a sign of vacation laxness creeping in)
  • It was hot and humid
  • We saw an exotic flower in Panther Hollow
  • We took up all of CommonPlace's outdoor seating and more (it was a little street party)
  • Great enthusiasm was showered on a father and daughter who were promoting an Urban Chicken Coop tour 
  • Two members have children graduating from high-school today (congratulations Wendy and Virginia)
