April 18 Run/Walk: Meet at the Strip - Penn and 21st Street - should be enough street parking

This week we'll explore everything that's been happening on the Strip in the last year - a lot!  Meet at Penn and 21st, park on the street.  Coffee either at La Prima if we're feeling yinzer or Atelier de Fer (200 Smallman) if we're feeling chichi.  Bring a chair - who knows where we can sit.  Though it looks like it will be a bit, ah, chilly - maybe bring blankets.

Normality is creeping back!  On Sunday we had a real run, walk, coffee and kibitzing.  We wore shorts and ate pastries.  We climbed a new overlook and found a new cafe (cutesy but not overly Beans 'N Cream!)  Beth, resident scientist, explained the unusual water infrastructure.  There was some bouncing. 

Endorsements:

  • Also discovered in Aspinwall: Farmer x Baker, farm to table (now takeout) restaurant in a shipping container on the riverfront.
  • Airbnb's where you don't have to deal with the owners.  
  • Vintage nut crushers
  • La Fermiere yogurt at the co-op - could be dessert and comes with adorable ceramic cups, especially the red ones in February.
  • Swimming with the fishes - at lakes in Keystone and Moraine State Parks
