May 18 Run/Walk: Meet at California Coffee Bar, 3619 California Ave, Pittsburgh 15212

 May 18 Run/Walk: Meet at California Coffee Bar, 3619 California Ave, Pittsburgh 15212

 California Coffee Bar is near both Bicycle Heaven and Manchester Craftmen's Guild.


Last Sunday, we made our annual Mother's Day walk/run to the Queen of Peace Shrine, aka, Our Lady of the Parkway.  To read a little about the history and lore surrounding the shrine, check out Virginia's story in the April 23, 2023 edition of Pittsburgh Magazine.  https://www.pittsburghmagazine.com/places-we-love-lady-of-the-parkway/

After our pilgrimage, we were able to gather outside the Oakland Starbucks, thanks to the glorious weather, and hang out for as long as we liked. And we hung out, which we liked.

A single endorsement, but one with a ticking clock: Catch the Kara Walker exhibit at the Frick Museum before it closes on May 25.  Kara Walker

And -- Garrison Keillor fans!  Two tickets are available for his May 30th show at the City Winery, 1627 Smallman Street.  The tickets were originally $70 each, but the ticket holder, (Elaine's sister) will sell them for $100 total.  To get more information, email Judithbendersky@gmail.com or 907-230-1935
