East End Runners

So many decisions could have been bad!

February 20 Run/Walk: Return to Tazza D'Oro, 1125 N.Highland Ave.

Just discovered that Tazza D'Oro has re-opened after being a pandemic dropout - perhaps there is light at the end of this tunnel!  And, this may be the last time we can catch the sunrise over the Highland Park reservoir (at 7:06 am on Sunday and getting earlier).  So let's do it.  Hopefully there are apple dumplings.

For our pre-Valentine's excursions, we wandered out from Mellon Park.  Intrepid walkers uncovered the origin of the soon-to-be-created Brilliant Line bikeway/walkway from Aspinwall to the East End over the Allegheny River. Hurry up already! At the moment you can get to one end of the rail route up a ramp off of Hamilton near N. Dallas, and when snow blesses us, it's a cross-country ski route all the way to the river.  Then we visited the gorgeously renovated Homewood Library and the bridge over the busway to Westinghouse Park.  Panera beat Starbucks so we'll find another one soon.  Endorsed:
