June 13 Run/Walk: Meet at the Aspinwall Riverfront Park parking lot

We're going back to Aspinwall because the river is glorious and the gardens are even cuter now, and also if you are a frequenter of yard sales, there is a town-wide one starting at 9 am.  Coffee takeout is available nearby, and there are seats on the riverfront.  Let's hope the weather gods oblige.

We had a Squirrel Hill comfort-zone treat on Sunday - the familiar combo of Schenley Park plus the 61C.  Much was discussed and there was also some running/walking.  RG medical personnel dispensed the best advice as always, especially about gardening, pastry and shoes. 

Endorsed:

  • birdwatching in 61C patio - we were THIS CLOSE to a mom feeding her chick - too cute!  also Merlin Bird ID.  You can also ask Chris about their respiratory systems, apparently unique to birds and crocodiles.
  • Prantl's new location in Squirrel Hill and the mini-almond torte
  • Three Rivers Arts Festival - who cares if you've never heard of any of the groups - there is an actual festival happening, people!
  • Duolingo app - 36 languages, including Klingon, Navajo, and Yiddish - you can waste time on your phone now without really wasting time.
  • UPS has notaries but you need to call first.
  • Jewish youth organizations (sometimes): BBG, CRUSY and NFTYNEL (not to be confused with NFL)
