Enjoyed an afternoon walk from Buena Vista, PA #GAP trailhead headed down river towards #Pittsburgh. I specifically selected a green uninhabited section and it did not disappoint. Although it also included easy parking and a bathroom!!

Walked with the 🦮🐕‍🦺 on the Westmoreland Heritage Trail starting at Saunders Station trailhead. Turtle Creek was still overflowing from yesterday’s storm. Taken from an old bridge abutment along the trail.

Boys and their father wading in the rapids above Ohiopyle falls. The daringness of the older one headed for the rock outcropping, the sweetness of the younger holding his father’s hand.

#Sunset over the #Summerset neighborhood of #Pittsburgh last night. Hard to believe these are man-made hills; here is a good video on it. The side I’m standing on has now been remediated as well and the urban solar farm closer to reality. www.pbs.org/video/weird-...

Tonight’s lunar #eclipse from #Pittsburgh. At times like these I start thinking about getting a real camera (rather than iPhone). This was almost full eclipse, only a sliver glowing, but the camera pulls in too much light.

Started at the Sheepskin Trail in Point Marion, PA which connects to the Mon River Rail Trail, WV, so I walked to another state today 😜 Beautiful shaded walk, but unfortunately, there’s a noisy power plant that I was not aware of! Recommend if you’re into engineering as there is also a lock and dam!

Tonight’s walk, because walking when the sun up is rough in this heatwave, revealed some interesting shadows created by the newly installed LED street lamps.

Despite the heat, had a nice walk on the Westmoreland Heritage Trail, starting at Saunders Station. Lovely shaded green along Turtle Creek.

Wonderful walk today on Ghost Town Trail starting at Dilltown and headed West. Quiet, mostly along Blacklick Creek, a couple bridges and restrooms at the parking lot! Worth the hour drive out of town.
