We'll start at our favorite Trailhead, that of Wendy Bennett (map), and explore Schenley Park for a change. Then head to 61C for a schmoozefest.
Last Sunday's excursion, designed by Beth (Lainy's daughter,) was spectacular, traversing the Mexican War Streets and then climbing up the Fineview Fitness Trail to a seemingly endless series of those very fine views. Coffee and convo were at the adorable park outside of Commonplace Coffee, where our escort, Weasley the dog, was finally able to relax (see photo.) It was a long wait to get coffee at the cafe, and, more urgently, impossible to use the bathroom. But Wendy and I discovered that the officers at the local police station were kind to Grandma-types in distress.
