Does anyone have boxes to spare that I could use for an upcoming move? Medium to large in size is best.... no wardrobe boxes needed. Even advice on where to get them (local businesses willing to give boxes away) would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance :) -- Jenny Altman 412.915.5080

Foundational Yoga Tuesday Morning at 8 in Highland Park
by Susan Rupani 28 Jun '15

28 Jun '15

Last Tuesday was an exceptionally beautiful morning for yoga in the park, and hopefully the same will be true this Tuesday morning for our 8 a.m. class! Please join us as we focus on an easy and graceful practice to establish and maintain our maturing bodies, through gentle opening asanas, (asana is Sanskrit meaning to place in a spcial way) building flexibility, alignment, strength and stability in our practice. Classes in the park are 1 hour, suggested donation of $10. Please meet to the right of the fountain which offers a shade option as well as stability on the paved area. Bring a mat and water, and wear comfortable clothes. Looking forward to sharing the practice of yoga with you! Namaste, Susan 412-417-6300 About Susan Rupani: I am a certified yoga instructor in the YogaWorks tradition, as well as a Holistic Counselor and avid organic gardener! My yoga practice began over 35 years ago and has brought me great joy and a deeper understanding of how deeply integrated out physical body is with our mental, emotional and spiritual well being.

CURB ALERT - gardening pots
by Celeste Stec 28 Jun '15

28 Jun '15

Ok folks, I've gone through my collection of pots tomorrow is the last chance to grab what I don't want: Large, medium, small, clay, pedestal, decorative, ugly - you name it there is a pot for you. There is also a folding camping chair, and a double papasan loveseat that just needs a new cushion - still really sturdy. Great for students or camp maybe. Sorry, I'm too busy to "hold" or meet you - everything will be on the curb after the trash men leave in the morning. Can't get anything cheaper than free! 6108 Saint Marie Street
