On Thanksgiving morning, sleep in a little to meet at 7:30 at the Squirrel Hill Starbucks on Forbes. Virginia will lead a run through Schenley Park, possibly extending to Oakland and Shadyside for those looking for a longer run.
Next Sunday 11/29, meet at 61C Cafe at the regular time for a regular neighborhood run. After traveling to other neighborhoods lately, let's stay close to home base this time.
Last Sunday, Pam toured us through Homestead, starting in the Waterfront, crossing the train tracks, and up into Homestead, up the hills into Munhall. We got off to a slow start, waiting at the railway crossing, where we counted 114 cars (excluding the double stacked ones), all covered in snow, coming from the west. Perhaps a harbinger of weather to come, but glad not yet! It was hard to run very far without passing a church. At the pinnacle of Munhall, we found the historic Munhall Fire Hall, established in 1894. We also wandered around the gorgeous Carnegie of Homestead Music Hall, and pondered a bite at gastropub Dorothy 6.
Coffee was at Panera at the Waterfront, where Roye sparked a lively discussion on the origins of the bidet, which quite seriously lasted most of the coffee time! Things that make you go hmmmm.....
Happy Thanksgiving!
