January 23 Run/Walk: Meet at Oakland Starbucks across from Soldiers & Sailors



This is what you get if you can extricate yourself from your bed at 6:30 on Sunday in the freezing cold - not to mention the companionship - worth it!!  (Thanks to Virginia for the photo.)  Next Sunday we'll be in Oakland, so a different vista, but as always there will be something remarkable. Meet at the Oakland Starbucks, kitty-corner (dating myself here) from Soldiers & Sailors at 4022 Fifth Ave.  Probably not a good idea to go inside for coffee yet - but since it's supposed to plunge to 7 degrees by Sunday night, outdoors is not that appealing either.  What we need are survival suits!

Last Sunday, as pictured, our trek through Frick Park was illuminating, and then we visited streets and stairs in Squirrel Hill that, impossibly, we had never seen before.  A good turnout, with the added enhancement of Teri's return.  And mittens were de rigueur.

Endorsed (recorded on the run so memory is short):
