February 4 Run: From 61B Cafe in Regent Square

We'll start at the 61B Cafe on Braddock Ave. in Regent Square, where we haven't been for a while, and which gives us various options which may be needed due to dubious weather conditions.  But remember:  it never rains on the run!  Or the walk, as we now have that too. 

Last week we had the pleasure of running through District 8 with a District 8 expert: Erika Strassburger, who pointed out along the way what's been happening, district-wise, and gave us some tips on how to keep more things happening.  Lots of chatting time hanging out near that nice fireplace
at the Coffee Tree.  Also those adorable little seltzers they give you with an espresso.

Endorsements:

  • MyBurgh App - tell the city what needs fixed!  See photo below, which we reported on the spot.  Someone also mentioned that you can report rabbits?  Also has a GPS tracker, and can tell you where the snowplows are, and various cool nerdy things.
  • CBD - the part of cannabis that you can put on your feet.
  • Blundstones, speaking of feet - the new Uggs but much cuter.  Watch out for fakes, though.
  • Pittsburgh Parking Chairs and the struggles thereof.
  • Snow Angels - several of the group are angelic in this way (and undoubtedly others.) But they need to be assigned closer to home when the roads are a mess.
  • The old W bus - another thing that is not there anymore - can we get it back?
