Last week we tragically missed our first Zumba opportunity, but Wendy promises another one soon. It must be admitted that the rain was simply pouring. However, a surprisingly good showing of intrepid runners and walkers paid no mind, and soaking wet, we later dripped all over the floor of the Tazza D'Oro. Never did a cappuccino taste so good. So much to talk about (includes last week):
- Nature! There is a Mushroom Club in Pittsburgh - Birding can be transcendental but evidently some people are overdoing it - Hurray for fly-fishing c/o Beth and her Stream Girls - plus the wildflowers in Boyce Mayview Park.
- Eden Hall is very cool and will soon host the Funky Fly Project and an Earth Wind & Fire night.
- Music - The Pittsburgh Girls' Choir sings about Anne Frank at Rodef Shalom on June 14 - recommended! Also, Resonance Works has amazing performances but it looks like we've missed the whole season, so I'm signing up for updates.
- TV: Game of Thrones! I know, I know, it's overhyped and super-violent. But what a show. Also This is Us (location: Pittsburgh), The Good Fight (helps deal with the current national emergency), and Three Identical Strangers, fascinating documentary about triplets separated at birth.
- Books: SO MANY free audiobooks from the Carnegie Library - it's worth getting a quick free tutorial from one of their librarians to save the time in figuring out how to use them.
- Hair - recommended stylists: Mary at Classic Hair, Beth at Evolve, Marianne at Denim and Co., Griff at Capristo.
- Birthdays, notable ones: Laurie will be celebrated on July 20 with a dance party - save the date - and we'll toast Aimee on May 26 with a Strip run and then head to Deluca's for b'day brunch.
- Eyeglasses - good ones at Lenscrafters that don't cost a fortune. Also, Transition sunglasses don't work inside cars - good to know!
- Summer Line Dancing starts May 17.
