So many decisions could have been bad!

August 23 Run: One more time - meet at the Waterfront Starbucks!

What's not to like?  Giant chairs, shade, easy access to coffee and napkins, our Lieutenant Governor and his family, and a pristine bathroom.  So we'll return yet again to the yard of the Waterfront Starbucks, showing that this bizarre time is another episode of Groundhog Day.  We also may resolve once and for all the Glenwood Bridge/Duck Hollow trail access mystery.

Reporting on the last two weeks (photos below), we toured Homestead and its amazing churches, visited the riverside trail where goats are employed in landscaping (no leafblowers!), and crossed the Hi-Level Bridge for a foray into Summerset, Duck Hollow and beyond.  Someday we'll follow that beyond to the Carrie Furnace, per Lainy.  

More election anxiety.  We discussed some more things to do:  

OK - back to needed distractions:

  • RG scientists enjoy abbreviating the follow-up of something - FU whenever.
  • Going gray, no longer scary.
  • Zoom enhancement:  get decent lighting and camera placement. And no unmade beds in the background.
  • COVID vaccine trials here are starting this week.  Please let them work.
  • Drive-in at the Carrie Furnace - films every weekend, but sign up before they sell out.
  • Watch Stateless on Netflix, Offspring (oy vey, again?) on Hulu
  • Lainy has a paid opportunity to be on an online stakeholder panel - need to be family member or caregiver of a person in assisted living - email emormer@pitt.edu
  • Lieut. Governor John Fetterman is actually in this photo right above Max's blonde head.
