So many decisions could have been bad!

March 21 Run/Walk: Meet at Highland Park entrance - and zoom in at 8:15 this time

It looks like it will be frigid again on Sunday morning, but because we're tough, and it will be the 2nd day of Spring, and we are really sick & tired of staying inside - how about if we meet at the entrance to Highland Park on Sunday at 7 - to see the sunrise over the reservoir and other neighborhood treats we have been missing.  Plenty of room to space out, and plenty of reasons to space out too.

Then zoom in at 8:15 this time (to give people time to get back to warm kitchens.)  Link:  https://pitt.zoom.us/j/97642356094?from=addon

From last week there's really no run/walk news, but it was great to see Billie again on zoom (remember, expats, you can join any Sunday!)  Endorsements:

  • ZUMBA with Wendy and her nephew Sky!  Highland Park Entrance, tomorrow: Friday, March 13, 5:30 pm. 
  • You can see the Laurel Highlands and its windmills from a bench on the Riverview Trail in Frick Park - to be verified on a run soon.
  • Gretchen's choir is singing again, masked.
  • Bird watching outside the Environmental Center in Frick Park - they have posters with photos for people like me who can only identify robins.
  • Jane Fonda - and OMG do you remember this (watch the trailer). Who else did it hundreds of times? Now she's 84 and getting arrested for climate protests. (Also: a shameless plug for my daughter Eve's interview with her last week.)
  • Evidently you can rent the whole Penn Hills Cinema for $25 and invite your nearest and dearest and vaccinated.
  • Watch:  Will Smith's Amend: the Fight for America
  • Read: A Gentleman in Moscow
  • Drink:  Lagavulin whiskey, delish! But if it's not available, any whiskey.
