March 15 Run: Allegheny Cemetery and thereabouts - meet at Penn Ave. entrance

On Sunday we are touring Allegheny Cemetery, looking for signs of spring, and perhaps picking up a bit of Friendship (of course) along the way.  Meet at the Penn Avenue entrance.  Not sure about coffee location.

Last week was still icy in unpredictable spots - I know this even though I missed the run itself but ran over to Virginia's later. However, lots of warmth (and deliciousness) in Virginia's kitchen afterwards, as we bid farewell to Tammy, who is moving to LA, but has promised to come back for visits.  Much interesting conversation, too much to report, but here are endorsements:
Netflix:
The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (Tina Fey's latest)
Hemlock Grove (if you don't mind creepiness)

Books:
Audio version of Tina Fey's Bossypants
Amy Poehler's Yes Please
My Brilliant Friend - and the Neapolitan Trilogy by Elena Ferrante

Movies yet to come, made in our fair city:
Let It Snow - production spotted recently in our neighborhoods
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl - opening this summer in NYC - and featuring: several RG members!  Maybe planning a group trip to go see it there and do some circuits in Central Park, too.

Apps:
Busgazer - realtime information on Port Authority buses  - guaranteed to change your life
Pittsburgh Snow Plow Tracker - hopefully not to use until next year

Life:
Tammy's advice on using systems to make choices - please come back and tell us more.
