March 3 Run: Meet at the Everyday Cafe, 532 N. Homewood Ave.

We'll meet on Sunday at the Everyday Cafe at 532 N. Homewood Ave.  in Homewood near the busway stop.  It's our second try, and this time they promise us they will be open!  Bring your credit card because it's no-cash, and I don't know if they take bitcoin, which naturally everyone has. Lainy will show us the Pitt Community Engagement Center, and I am trying to recruit David Bear who is working on the secret history of Westinghouse Park, which included tunnels and a giant gas well that shot flames 100 feet into the air.

Last week we had perfect running weather and, well, you'll have to guess about he run from the pictures, because Linda and I had a perfect bracing Highland Park walk with inspiring views over the river and the reservoir.

Of course we always join forces for coffee, chat, and endorsements:

• The exquisite Lavender Latte at Tazza D'Oro, especially the one pictured.
• Rob Rogers - we miss him!  (He has a book signing on Friday, March 1, tomorrow.)
• Speaking of which, newspapers!  May the force be with them.
• Continuation of our sustainable anti-plastic efforts:  Beth sent in the recipe she uses to make homemade laundry soap - no more giant plastic laundry jugs!  
• Cabaret - too late, you missed it, and so did I.  I have to remember that the musicals at CMU always sell out early.  Gretchen said it was terrific.
• Movie:  The Favourite - it's wild.
• Do you remember that window of time when long-sleeve running shirts had those handy little thumbholes?  Where are they now?
