So many decisions could have been bad!

July 27 Run/Walk: Meet at the new Ineffable Ca Phe, 7511 Thomas Blvd. Pt. Breeze (off of Braddock)

For post-run sustenance, we'll try out the new location for the Ineffable Vietnamese cafe, now attached to the brand new and wildly abundant Asian superstore called Enson Market in the Rockwell Park development across from the Co-op.  There is a parking lot - address listed at 7511 Thomas Blvd., off of Braddock.  It's a little confusing in there but Google Maps clarifies it here.  The run/walk itself is TBD.  Enson Market itself opens at 10, and is a sight to see - so we might want to stretch out our coffee time.  

Last week we made our trek to Schenley Park to wander around the Grand Prix, though at this point I don't pay much attention to the cars.  They were shiny. The weather was blessedly cool, and of COURSE the rain held off as we nestled into Sharon's green and comfy backyard and downed a multitude of treats.

Things to ponder:

  • Go here: Findhorn, Scotland.
  • Also, Costco.  Especially now that they have copycat Lululemon pants.  
  • Take to the: Open Streets- happening in Lawrenceville after the run on Sunday
  • Find a bathroom in Ford City - evidently Volunteer Fire Dept. Station 2 is an option.  "It never hurts to ask" says Gretchen.
  • Watch:  The Bear?  Maybe the 7 Fishes episode.
  • Learn about: the Whiskey Rebellion, which happened right here circa 1791.  Maybe next year:  the 42nd Annual Whiskey Rebellion 5K in Canonsburg.  I really want that t-shirt.
  • Do yoga: in Frick Park (off of Beechwood) with RG favorite Linda Meacci on Tuesdays evenings at 6:30.  Or, in Italy
  • Listen to: great music, and support our immigrant community in these perilous times:  at the All Together Now Festival August 7-10. Buffalo Rose will be there!
  • Take a stand against tyranny, cruelty, and mayhem - find a time and place here.
